HARTZ Physical Therapy (HARTZ PT) is celebrating its 25th year serving the community in 2025. To commemorate the milestone, the company will award grants to 25 Lancaster County charities throughout 2025. Twenty-four charities will receive $2,500, and one charity will be chosen to receive 100% of the proceeds from the 22nd annual Fall Blast 5K & Kids Color Run held every October, estimated to be $25,000.

Four selected charities will be eligible to receive one of two $2,500 grants each month during 2025. The staff of HARTZ PT, along with the business's patients and followers on Instagram and Facebook, will play an integral role in the selection of the winners each month. If a charity is not selected during a specific month after the vote, it will return to the selection process for a second chance.

Community members are invited to nominate charities at http://www.hartzpt.com/community/25th-anniversary/. To be eligible for consideration for the Fall Blast proceeds, nominations must be received by Friday, Jan. 10.

The $25,000 Fall Blast beneficiary will be found among the monthly $2,500 nominees. The Fall Blast director and committee will select three finalists, which will be required to fill out an application providing specific information, such as financial details. The finalists will make a presentation on Friday, Feb. 7, to the staff members of HARTZ PT, who will then choose the winner.
