The second annual FaithfulGive raised more than $1.4 million from 2,843 donors‬‭ and‭ sponsors in support of more than 90 faith-based, nonprofit organizations. This amount is nearly double the 2023 total. The event was held from‬‭ Oct. 20 to 22.

Gifts will‬‭ help to meet needs across Lancaster County, and every donation has been stretched and multiplied thanks to a‬‭ stretch fund from donors like Gold Sponsors Faithward Advisors and Witbeck Family Foundation and Silver‬‭ Sponsors Bare Wealth Advisors; Blessings of Hope; Clymer, Musser & Sarno; and Sight & Sound Theatre. Donors also‬‭ had the opportunity to sign up as a volunteer or prayer partner to meet the practical needs of these ministries.‬

‭‭Bible2School Penn Manor won the largest prize - the $5,000 Just Keep Swimming award - for demonstrating wisdom, love,‬ ‭and persistent courage under challenging circumstances.

The full list of participating organizations, along with prize winners, is available at‬‭ https://faithfulgive.org‬‭.

FaithfulGive was formed in 2023 to help a growing number of Christian nonprofits that wanted a community‬‭ event that would celebrate and nurture Lancaster's rich biblical heritage and guard that heritage for the next‬‭ generation. The new platform seeks to expand the definition of generosity to include giving time, talents, and‬‭ treasure.
