Bucks County Community College is proud to recognize Hatboro Federal Savings for their generous support of our Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program.

Thanks to their commitment, our K–12 programs continue to offer students engaging opportunities to explore new interests, deepen their learning, and achieve their goals.

A special thank you to Linda Roehner, President and CEO of Hatboro Federal Savings, for her dedication to education in Bucks County. Karen O’Donnell, Vice President for Advancement & Alumni Relations and Lisa Hensiek, Director of Corporate and Foundation Relations, of Bucks County Community College were present to receive this recognition on behalf of the College.

Their collective support helps empower students and strengthen our community.

Last week we hosted our biennial Scholarship Luncheon, bringing together the generous donors who make education possible and the remarkable students whose lives they’ve touched through their generosity.

A special thank you to Scott Fegley for sharing his inspiring words on the power of giving, and to student recipient Emily Wehr for reminding us how scholarships truly change lives.

Events like this showcase the power of community and the lasting impact of scholarships at Bucks County Community College.

Last evening, President & CEO Dr. Patrick M. Jones was honored to serve as keynote speaker at the Central Bucks Chamber of Commerce Emergency Services Awards Dinner celebrating the county’s volunteer firefighters and EMTs. 🚒

During his remarks, Dr. Jones announced that Bucks County Community College will soon launch a new course in Fire and Emergency Response Training for Data Centers and Lithium Battery Incidents, ensuring local first responders are prepared for emerging challenges with electric vehicles and the growing number of data centers in our region, including the new Amazon Web Services facility in Falls Township.

He also recognized Bucks student Jamyz Lacey-Holly, a volunteer firefighter with the Lingohocken Fire Company and recipient of this year’s Don Whitney Scholarship. Jamyz completed more than 380 hours of EMT and fire training at the College, earning multiple national certifications. A member of the inaugural cohort of our new degree in Veterinary Technician, Jamyz plans to make firefighting his career and hopes to “be the kind of firefighter who makes kids feel safe and inspired.”

Dr. Jones thanked the first responders, including Jamyz, for their service and their family members for their support of their loved ones.

Bucks County Community College gratefully acknowledges Ken Keller, Vice President of Peoples Security Bank & Trust, for presenting a generous contribution to Dr. Patrick Jones, President and CEO of Bucks County Community College.

This gift supports the Dual Enrollment Program, which allows high school students to earn college credits while still in high school. The College deeply appreciates the partnership of Peoples Security Bank & Trust Company in expanding access and affordability for local students.

Thank you for helping us open doors to higher education and brighter futures.
