Norfolk Southern Awards $12,500 to LUM

Providing Essential Support to Families in Need

Norfolk Southern has awarded LUM a $12,500 grant through its Thriving Communities Program to support the LUM Good Samaritan Fund. The Thriving Communities initiative is designed to promote growth and resilience by addressing fundamental needs, enhancing well-being, preserving cultural identity, and improving neighborhood infrastructure.

This $12,500 grant represents a significant contribution to the LUM Good Samaritan Fund, which provides financial assistance to local households facing crises such as evictions, utility disconnections, and medical emergencies. The fund operates with no administrative costs, ensuring that every dollar directly benefits those in need. This generous support from Norfolk Southern strengthens the community and underscores the importance of collaborative efforts in building resilience and stability.
