HOPE in Lancaster is thrilled to announce the tremendous success of the Ward Faulkenberry Christmas Basket Program our recent campaign, raised an impressive $7,585. This achievement enabled us to purchase the necessary food items for 300 families in need in Lancaster County during this festive season.
We distributed 300 food bags to the neediest families in Lancaster County and Fort Lawn. This substantial effort wouldn’t have been possible without the overwhelming generosity of our community.
