Join us for a very special Lancaster Connects conversation that will touch your heart and inspire action! We're chatting with Carole and Dave Simons, whose daughter Sammie became permanently disabled after a life-changing event at an early age. Through Sammie's journey, Friendship Community was born—a remarkable local nonprofit cultivating capabilities and enriching the lives of individuals with intellectual disabilities and autism right here in Lancaster.



We're also welcoming Shawn Blake from Universal Athletic Club, who's hosting an exciting charity boot camp to benefit Friendship Community. Shawn will share how this unique event offers a fun, powerful way for our Lancaster neighbors to come together, break a sweat, and impact our community for good.

Tune in to discover ways you can engage, support, and truly make a difference in the lives of others right here in Lancaster!
