A huge thank you to our amazing Leadership Franklin County Alumni who volunteered their time at Saturday's Scoop-A-Palooza!

Whether they were working behind the scenes to plan, talking to attendees at the Foundation tables, representing their organizations at vendor booths, or bravely stepping up to become our Human Sundae, our alumni brought incredible energy and enthusiasm to the day.

It was especially rewarding to see our LFC Alumni volunteering alongside our Leadership Franklin County Youth students, demonstrating what servant leadership looks like in action. Thank you all for helping make Scoop-a-Palooza another sweet success!

🔨🏡 Another great day of service in the books!

A huge thank you to our second group of Leadership Franklin County Alumni volunteers who recently rolled up their sleeves to support the Habitat for Humanity of Franklin County PA build project.

From building homes to building community, our alumni continue to demonstrate what servant leadership looks like in action. Thank you for investing your time, talents, and energy to help create a brighter future for a local family. ❤️

We are proud of the difference our LFC alumni make throughout Franklin County—one project, one volunteer day, and one act of service at a time.

🍭 Leadership isn't about a title—it's about the impact you have on others. 💙

The LFC Youth Class of 2027 gathered yesterday for their annual summer retreat, where the focus was on building trust 🤝, strengthening connections 🌟, and laying the foundation for a successful year ahead.

Through team-building challenges led by Mark Keck and the Mill Road Adventures Team 🧗, the 25 students stepped outside their comfort zones, learned to rely on one another, and strengthened the bonds that will carry them through the program.

Students also continued to explor the Five Practices of the Student Leadership Challenge, their True Colors personalities 🎨, and watched Drew Dudley's "Leading with Lollipops" TED Talk. 🍭 The message was simple but powerful: leadership is often found in small acts of kindness that make a lasting difference.

Before leaving, students reflected on the kindness they experienced during the retreat and were challenged to create their own "lollipop moments" by paying it forward. 💛 Each student received two lollipops—one to keep and one to give away.

We can't wait to see this incredible group continue to grow as leaders, teammates, and changemakers! 🚀
