SHARE stands for Services for Human Advancement and Resource Enhancement. SHARE is a non-profit social service center for the economic and social advancement of the Lexington community. Our goal is to assist in the development of the individual, family, and community self-sufficiency, and to provide the tools and guidance for individuals so that they may become healthy, whole, righteous human beings including all races, religions, and backgrounds. We strive to Make a Difference and Show Compassion in Lexington so that the individual is not relying on the Community but applying their abilities and committed desires to become self-reliant and remaining productive.

EVERY COMMUNITY DESERVES TO SHINE

The primary means of attaining this is through our focus on helping people locate and get jobs. Inside this mission volunteers investigate and identify potential jobs and then counsel clients who enter the SHARE Center to match them with appropriate jobs. We provide the resources and guidance to get the jobs. We have attained a greater than fifty percent success rate at having clients secure jobs.
