QUOTE:
“Lincoln, for those of us who were born and raised here, is too often taken for granted.  That’s why it’s always a treat to hear from “transplants” who now live and work here commenting on how much they value the community, its assets, and its citizens, when they compare it to other locales they’ve called home.  Whether we’re natives or newcomers, this city has provided outstanding resources to enrich our lives.  The Lincoln Community Foundation is one of those remarkable resources and an ideal conduit to help us express gratitude for the opportunity to be part of the Lincoln experience.”
