Mission Statement

Yearly, the St. Patrick’s Day Parade committee choses a group of Douglas County area children’s charities as the beneficiaries of the funds we raise by holding more than 10 events all leading up to parade day. Once we have our beneficiaries selected, the work really begins as they are involved in every aspect of running our parade and the many charitable events we hold each year. In 2023, we are very excited to be raising money for Cantemos Youth Chorale, O'Connell Children's Shelter, and the Sunrise Project.

Description

The Lawrence St. Patrick's Day Parade is much more than a one-day event. In addition to bringing a bit o' the green to Downtown Lawrence, Kansas, each March, yearly, the Committee runs more than 10 events to raise money for Douglas County area children's charities. Since our founding in 1988, we have donated more than $1.2 Million to charity. This doesn't even count our Sully's Pot of Gold emergency fund which yearly gives up to $5,000 to individuals or organizations across the community who find themselves with a temporary need.

Our committee is made up of 100+ people from across the Lawrence community. We are an all-volunteer committee that is led by a board of 10 individuals. If you would like to join our committee, we would welcome your support.
