Thank you to President and CEO of Chester County United Way Christopher Saello and Amanda Blevins for giving Nate Hoffer, MBA and me a tour of their state-of-the-art facility. The Leadership Training Center is a fantastic space available for non-profits like Good Samaritan Services to use for board meetings and other community programs, while the Social Innovation Lab was created to assist nonprofits in developing innovative programs and solutions to community problems. Excited for future collaboration!??

We love seeing the incredible impact our nonprofit partners make in the community! Earlier this week, the Michael Ann & Saquon Barkley Hope Foundation teamed up with Youth Mentoring Partnership to distribute turkeys to local families in the Coatesville area. ?? ?? Thank you for spreading hope and kindness where it's needed most!

A Community United: Celebrating the Gift of Mobility Last night was a truly unforgettable evening as representatives from the McClindon Family Foundation and the Foxwynd Foundation joined forces to make a profound impact on the lives of children in the Philadelphia area. Together, we delivered adaptable bikes to children with cerebral palsy who have been on a long waiting list for this life-changing gift. These bikes represent more than mobility—they symbolize freedom, inclusion, and joy. The event was a heartfelt celebration, attended by families, therapists, doctors, and friends who have supported these incredible children every step of the way. The partnership between the McClindon Family Foundation and the Foxwynd Foundation is a testament to what we can achieve when we come together with a shared mission: to create meaningful opportunities for children to thrive. Thank you, McClindon Family Foundation, for your unwavering support and generosity. The smiles, laughter, and tears of joy we witnessed last night will remain in our hearts forever. A very special shout out to Allison Oubre and her team for flying into Pennsylvania for this touching event, and to the Chester County United Way for opening their doors! Together, we are stronger. Together, we are making dreams come true. #CommunityImpact #Partnerships #Inclusion #Gratitude #Philanthropy #FoxwyndFoundation
