A community fundraiser is planned in Lexington to raise money for Special Olympics Kentucky’s basketball team uniform needs, according to WKYT.

The event will be a lemonade and popsicle stand scheduled to run from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at 353 Albany Road in Lexington.

WKYT reported that the fundraiser will accept public support during the afternoon hours, with the money collected intended to help cover uniform-related costs for the Special Olympics Kentucky basketball team.

Special Olympics Kentucky offers sports opportunities for athletes with intellectual disabilities, and uniform support can help ensure teams are equipped for practices and competitions, organizers said in connection with the fundraiser.

The event is being staged at a fixed street address in Lexington, making it a walk-up option for nearby residents and passersby looking to contribute during the posted hours.

For people who want to participate, the activity is limited to the time window listed by WKYT, with proceeds tied to the team uniform purpose described for the Special Olympics effort.

Why It Matters

  • The timing and set hours make it straightforward for families and community members to participate in a single-day fundraiser.
  • Uniform support can reduce barriers for athletes and help teams prepare for organized sports activities.
  • The fundraiser provides a direct, community-based way to support Special Olympics Kentucky athletes at the team level.
  • By directing funds to a specific equipment need, the event links donations to a concrete use for the basketball team.
