MAKE A DONATION!
Please consider Link as a valuable place to offer your money.
Link contributes substantially to the Lawrence community by stabilizing our impoverished, mentally ill, and homeless citizens through food security. When humans cannot get their basic needs met they become de-stabilized.
- Link is one of the places in our city that not only serves food, it is also a place where our guests can belong.
- Belonging is as much a basic need as the food is.
In the coming months our operating budget is set to rise by 28% due to a windfall increase in our monthly payment to the First Christian Church.
Your support is appreciated more than ever at this time.

One of the most notable aspects of LINK is the attitude of the people that make it work. They are kind and caring and not the least bit condescending. They are inclined to be far more enriched than the visitors.
