Renae Carsten's LBDI Campaign

When you lack options, you lack opportunity...

...This is the underlying concept behind poverty's restrictions on choices, opportunities and access to resources.

1 in 6 residents in Topeka lives at or below the national poverty level. Throughout the week, I will join other members of my community in wearing the same Little Black Dress (or in my case, black scrubs) for 5 days in order to:

1. Raise awareness of community instability

2. Illustrate how limited resources affect daily life; and

3. Raise funds that will be utilized by the Junior League of Topeka to support change in our community to help combat community instability

Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit the Junior League of Topeka, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

More information about Junior League of Topeka: The Junior League of Topeka is an organization of women promoting volunteerism, developing the potential of women, and improving the community through the effective action of trained volunteers.
