Fulton Bank Makes $100,000 Donation to Bright Path Center
Lenape Valley Foundation is pleased to announce that it has received a donation of $100,000 from Fulton Bank, which will support Bucks County’s new behavioral health crisis stabilization center, Bright Path Center.
Fulton Bank donated the funds as part of the Neighborhood Assistance Program, a tax credit initiative designed to assist locally based revitalization organizations. The funding will be invested in medical staff and furniture for Bright Path Center, which is scheduled to open in summer 2026.
“We are deeply grateful to Fulton Bank for this generous contribution to support behavioral health care in Bucks County,” said Dave Herold, CEO of Lenape Valley Foundation. “These funds enable us to make Bright Path Center a place of hope and healing for everyone. As we prepare to open the center’s doors, we look forward to establishing this deeply necessary resource for thousands of individuals and families in our area.”
Bright Path Center is located adjacent to Lenape Valley Foundation’s existing outpatient site at 500 N West Street, near Doylestown Hospital. The first of its kind in Pennsylvania, the center is designed to transform behavioral health crisis care in Bucks County.
“Bright Path Center will serve as a critical resource for individuals and families in Bucks County facing behavioral health and substance use challenges,” said Bill Maeglin, Senior Vice President of Fulton Bank. “We are proud to support this step forward in behavioral health services that brings compassionate, coordinated care close to home.”
Joe Tredinnick, Market President of Fulton Bank, further stated, “This investment reflects Fulton Bank’s long-standing purpose of changing lives for the better in the communities we serve.”
Slated to open in the summer of 2026, Bright Path Center will offer behavioral health crisis stabilization services around the clock. Experienced behavioral health professionals will be on-site 24/7 to welcome, assess, and stabilize those experiencing urgent challenges related to mental health, drug and alcohol use, and/or intellectual disabilities. With separate, trauma-informed spaces for children and adults, the center is specially designed to offer compassionate care to individuals and families to de-escalate critical situations and determine the best path forward toward hope and healing.
