Why is it important to financially invest in neighbors’ ideas and dreams?

Lamasco neighbors have the power and ability to create the change they want to see in the neighborhood! When neighbors are connected, we can leverage each other’s experiences, knowledge, abilities, talents, skills, and passions to make a positive impact. The Positive Impact Fund allows residents of the Lamasco Neighborhood to receive direct financial investments to accomplish their neighborhood-focused projects.
