Anonymous donor to match Lafayette Transitional Housing donations
LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) – An anonymous donor is giving Lafayette Transitional Housing the chance to double its donations.
For every dollar the center raises from now until Sept. 30, the donation will be matched up to $20,000. The money will help expand its Homeless Services Program.
Last year, Lafayette Transitional Housing helped nearly 900 homeless people.
Executive director Jennifer Layton said they are excited about this donation challenge.
“We don’t usually have a donor that says, ‘Here, I’ll offer you a donation. I expect you to try and match it,'” said Layton. “It’s a great opportunity and great way for our donors in our community to really get behind this initiative.”
