Downtown Lexington candlelight vigil will honor people who’ve died while homeless

City officials and representatives of social service agencies will gather in downtown Lexington Thursday for a candlelight vigil marking National Homeless Persons’ Memorial Day. The event takes place in the district of Councilmember Hannah LeGris. She said the aim is to honor people who’ve died while unhoused – and to look ahead for those still alive.

“We're gathered in downtown Lexington to honor the members of our community here who have been affected and to help us build a coalition and gain attention so that we have a brighter future.”
