As we come together during these challenging times, I'm inspired by everyday Pennsylvanians whose incredible acts of kindness and service have been bright lights in their communities. Here are some of the folks I've had the pleasure of speaking with. #ThankYouPennsylvanians
A serious car crash that put her out of work has never stopped Dawn Galia from seeking out opportunities to give back to SWPA. She's now hand sewn hundreds of masks for community members, health care workers and first responders. #ThankYouPennsylvanians triblive.com/local/valley-n…
24 yr-old Drexel University student Evan Ehlers is the founder of @sharingexcess, a Philadelphia-based nonprofit that has stepped in during COVID, to the tune of a 300% increase in food donations. #ThankYouPennsylvanians bloomberg.com/news/videos/20…
Two months after Lebanon County Commissioner Jo Ellen Litz first put out the call for homemade face masks in her community, she has fostered an operation of Central PA seamstresses - and have distributed over 8,000 masks. #ThankYouPennsylvanians eveningsun.com/story/news/202…
98-year-old Robert Kelsall wanted to improve his health and help others, so this World War II veteran from Lancaster County decided to walk laps to raise money for PPE for nursing homes. #ThankYouPennsylvanians wgal.com/article/lancas…
Mask-Erie, a group dedicated to making masks for front line workers, estimates they've distributed over 2000 masks to their community. Just another example of why we say #ThankYouPennsylvanians! goerie.com/news/20200410/…
Rachael Huxford is proof you don't need to be a pro to distribute masks. With a background in theater while studying physics at Penn State, Rachael organized members of the State College community to serve Centre County with masks. #ThankYouPennsylvanians collegian.psu.edu/news/borough/a…
On their most special day, Kerry Anne and Michael Gordan still took the opportunity to join protesters marching for justice and equality. A big congratulations and #ThankYouPennsylvanians! inquirer.com/news/george-fl…
I'm grateful for Cora Owens' words to her community. We have much more work to do, but she is a shining example of our Nation's path toward progress. #ThankYouPennsylvanians huntingdondailynews.com/news/local/man…
