On November 19, you can join thousands of people across the community and the world to support more than 500 local organizations. Chuck and I are excited to be part of Lancaster County’s largest day of giving!
If you didn’t already know, the Lancaster County Community Foundation are the proud host of the Extraordinary Give. Since they launched the first Extraordinary Give in 2012, our community has raised more than $63 Million for regional organizations.
Donations per capita in Lancaster County are among the most generous in the nation! How cool is that?!
It’s all thanks to the dedication of the participating organizations, members of our community, and sponsors who help stretch every dollar that is donated.
This year Chuck and I are passionate about Creative Hope Studios who are sponsored by Manos House. Our dear friends Jose Rios & TJ griffin have come together to provide custom built high quality affordable recording studios for schools, youth based agencies, rehabs and treatment facilities specializing in Juvenile Justice, education and rehabilitation.
Jose Rios โFLX SOUNDZ” is a professional music producer and engineer with over 15 years of experience working in the music industry.
TJ Griffin is a youth mentor, program provider, trainer and the founder of The Vision Program which provides programs, curriculum and workshops for at-risk youth predominately in the Juvenile Justice system.
There is much more to their talents and credentials but in a nut shell and in their words “๐๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ง๐ง๐ฆ๐ณ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ต๐ฉ ๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ต๐ถ๐ฏ๐ช๐ต๐ช๐ฆ๐ด ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ด๐ฆ๐ญ๐ง-๐ฆ๐น๐ฑ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ด๐ด๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ, ๐ค๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ท๐ช๐ต๐บ, ๐ค๐ถ๐ญ๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐ข๐ญ ๐ข๐ธ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ด๐ด, ๐ค๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ฆ๐น๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ด๐ช๐ค ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ข๐ฑ๐บ ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ณ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ๐ถ๐จ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ด๐ต ๐ต๐ช๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ช๐ณ ๐ญ๐ช๐ท๐ฆ๐ด.”
My personal goal is to get 100 $25 donations. This Friday (November 19), Chuck & I will be at the Lancaster Cigar Bar for the Extra Give.
Creative Hope Studios will also be at Blazin J’s and The Pop Up Shop.
We would LOVE your support, so come out and Celebrate how Amazing and Giving Lancaster County really is….we should all be grateful to live in this beautiful community. It’s not perfect, but it’s ours.
