LVF Spreads Holiday Cheer to Close to 500 People

Doylestown, PA, December 23, 2019 – Lenape Valley Foundation (LVF) helped to make the holidays much brighter for those in need. Through its annual Holiday Assistance Program, LVF distributed holiday gifts to close to 500 community members.

Individuals and companies were recruited to “adopt” individuals who were in need during the holiday season by purchasing gifts for them. Community members volunteered their time to wrap thousands of gifts in time for delivery before the holidays.

For more than 60 years, Lenape Valley Foundation has partnered with residents of Bucks County encountering mental health, substance use, intellectual or developmental challenges, providing services to assist them in the pursuit of their personal aspirations and an enhanced quality of life. Lenape Valley Foundation is a private, not-for-profit provider of crisis, information and referral, treatment, case management, residential, consultation, and psycho-educational services.

To “adopt” for the Holiday Assistance Program in the future, please call 267-893-5280 or email suzanne.rhodeside@lenapevf.org. For information regarding Lenape Valley Foundation and its services, please visit www.lenapevf.org or call 215-345-5300.
