Approximately 250 employees participated by volunteering at one of three
charities, including Stop Hunger Now, for which employees packaged
approximately 40,000 meals for those in need overseas. Lexington

assembled back-to-school kits for children as volunteers for The
Esplanade Association and Cradles to Crayon, respectively.

organizations. The company also has a 50-year tradition of giving back
to the Boston community.
