Our company has a three-legged giving guideline that helps us invest in our community: education & the arts, children, and the vulnerable. St. Jude, though not located locally, touches two of those three points of emphasis for us and expands our impact beyond our local community, expanding our giving in way we could only dream of doing previously.

During a visit to the St. Jude hospital in 2024, the L.G. Flint team saw firsthand the impact St. Jude has in the lives of sick children and their families. Returning to Lynchburg, the decision to partner so these families could receive treatment, travel, housing, and food was an easy one.

The Dream Home of Central Virginia has been a local mainstay since 2019. It has been an honor to partner with local businesses to do our part in conquering childhood cancer and supporting St. Jude’s mission: Finding cures. Saving children.®

“St. Jude inspires us to use our business and our skills to do our small part here in Lynchburg to give hope to sick children and their families across the world.”
Ron Blackwood
“We are always seeking to help the vulnerable in our community, whether on the job or in everyday life. St. Jude is doing the same when a child and their family need it the most.”
