First Community Foundation Partnership of Pennsylvania

Hats off to Sara Street as she celebrates her 3rd anniversary as our Rider Park Manager! Thank you for all you do for FCFP and especially Rider Park!

“For many nonprofits in the region, professional development opportunities are limited by budgets and access. FCFP and Community Giving Foundation have long desired to partner for the benefit of the organizations we support, and Elevate2 reflects our collective goal to inspire and strengthen nonprofit leaders through collaboration and education. By combining our resources, we have created a unique experience and doubled the impact that this conference will have on those who attend.” - Jennifer D. Wilson, FCFP President & CEO Join us for Elevate2 on October 14th and 15th. Learn more at elevate2.org. #communityfoundations #collaboration #nonprofitdevelopment #elevate2
