LCEC honors employees with more than 500 volunteer hours

March 7, 2024 – The LCEC Pay It Forward Program began in 2016 to encourage volunteerism and support the efforts of employees to give to their favorite qualifying non-profit organization. With this program, employees who volunteer and track volunteer hours can earn Pay It Forward donation dollars to be awarded to a 501 (c)(3) charity of choice. LCEC employees who volunteer between 50-100 hours in the community can designate a not-for-profit organization to receive up to a $100 donation.

Each year, LCEC celebrates employees who volunteer 500+ hours in a year. LCEC employees gathered today to celebrate Don, Jenell, Nancy, and Nicky on reaching this milestone in 2023. Each of these impressive employees was entered into a drawing for $500 to the charity of their choice! Nancy was the lucky winner of the raffle and opted to divide the $500 between the charities of choice for each 500 Club recipient! These charities include the Cape Charter School Foundation, Visuality, Inc., Cape American Baseball Koza/Saladino Field, Guns n Hoses Pipes n Drums of SW FL, and the Calendar Girls.

LCEC also thanks and applauds all of the incredible employees whose passion for philanthropy results in thousands of volunteer hours each and every year!
