The Gift of Giving Back
One of our most popular issues of the year, April marks our Giving edition. We hope you’ll read the pages that follow and be inspired to lend a hand to an individual or cause that becomes near and dear to your heart, because the world can always use more kindness.
Four Berks residents that are champions for local nonprofits share their stories starting on page 29. From helping cuddly kittens find their forever homes to aiding persons diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease get essential treatment, they show how one person can truly make a difference for so many. When you lead with your heart and love, the possibilities are endless.
On page 43 we encourage you to get some dates on your 2025-2026 calendar and to support some local nonprofit benefits. You’ll have a great time, and you’ll be supporting local organizations that give back to those in need close to home.
Speaking of local nonprofits, we aim to introduce you to a good number of them starting on page 54. Learn more about their missions, and should one — or two — strike a chord with you, delve deeper into discovering how you can champion them.
Finally, learn more about our People’s Choice leaders on page 22 and congratulate them when you visit them!
