Homelessness in Lexington has risen by over 25% in 2024, with more than 3,000 individuals identified in a recent community-led street survey—far surpassing the city’s official count of 825. At Foodwaste No More, we’re taking action: for the next two months, we’ll be hand-delivering weekly lunches to those in need.
We’re currently collecting urgently needed supplies. Please consider donating items or contributing to Venmo @foodwastenomore—every dollar makes a difference.

Let’s show up for our Lexington neighbors. Thank you for your support.
