Scholars are in full swing with their service teams!

A very successful Annual Coat Drive for the Social Services Team just wrapped up. These students also hosted events at the Bucks County Emergency Homeless Shelter and the YMCA.

Original works of art by the Creative Arts Team (CATs) have been submitted for distribution at the YWCA. Their Christmas Carol Cheer event will take place mid December, bringing joy to seniors in our community.

The Education Team began work at Holy Trinity’s After School Program with sixteen scholars supporting the elementary students with their homework and various clubs.

From making marketing videos, to taking up collections, the Independent Service Teams have taken on a variety of projects to serve the community! 

In support of our mentorship program, DLFF invited a distinguished alum, Mr. Zane Moore President/CEO of River Crossing YMCA, to speak on Leadership Through Service. As a part of the DLFF Speaker Series,

Mr. Moore gave advice on trusting your gut in times of uncertainty, stories on his commitment to service and even offered his personal email address to our scholars for potential opportunities. 

Scholars left the event describing it as “empowering and motivating.”
