Thank You to Our CCF “Goody Bag” Volunteers
WellSpringers stepped up and assembled 200 care packages to send to the students and staff involved with our community partner, Chester County Futures. During our drive-up event, volunteers picked up supplies to assemble treat bags with hot chocolate packs, candy canes, and hand written cards. These are always appreciated by the CCF organization, and we’re so glad we were able to safely continue this tradition in the age of social distancing.

What happens when we embrace the fear we feel, rather than trying to shove it aside? Making Friends With…
