We’d like to thank everyone who attended our recent “celebration of summer” event. It was terrific to spend more quality time with friends from our various member organizations as well as build new relationships.

We are grateful to each person who donated items for the Quakertown Food Pantry. Thanks to you, 206 pounds of non-perishable items have been added to their shelves at a most crucial time, as the need is always greater in summer when children do not receive breakfast or lunch at school.

Quakertown Food Pantry food drive coordinator Sally Lindemuth was able to join us for this event, sharing the many ways the pantry serves our community. Donating items for their summer lunch program, volunteering for pantry shifts, or holding donation events like this are some of the ways to join in their mission of helping our fellow community members thrive.

Look for more events like this as we celebrate our fiftieth anniversary year. It continues to be our privilege to serve businesses and residents throughout southeastern Pennsylvania, especially Bucks, Montgomery, and Lehigh counties.
