Up to $8,000 matched by a fellow Lakelander | May 1–31

Lakeland has a story to tell. Actually, it has hundreds of them.

LkldNow exists because the people who live here deserve stories told by people who actually live here too. We’re Lakelanders writing about Lakeland — the neighborhoods, the decisions, the people, and the moments that make this city what it is.

This May, a generous community member has agreed to match every donation dollar-for-dollar, up to $8,000. That means your $25 becomes $50. Your $100 becomes $200. Your support goes twice as far — but only through May 31.

Help us hit the match. Help us keep telling Lakeland’s story.
