This past spring, Handi-Crafters was honored to be nominated by The Wright Agency (Downingtown, PA) for Westfield Insurance's Legacy of Caring Program.

Established in 2015, the Legacy of Caring Program has supported hundreds of purpose-driven organizations and strengthened local communities through life-changing philanthropy.

Our organization is proud to be a recipient of this generosity, which will help us continue to expand and strengthen opportunities for 250+ individuals here at Handi-Crafters! 📦

In the month of August, The Wright Agency's very own Jonathan Wright and Thomas Ellsworth paid a special visit to Handi-Crafters to present us with a check and spend time with our program participants!

Established in 1977, The Wright Agency is a family-owned & operated insurance agency that has deeply meaningful ties to our mission—as both Jonathan Wright and Thomas Ellsworth are connected to Handi-Crafters through family! ❤️

A very special thank you to The Wright Agency for the nomination and the Westfield Insurance Legacy of Caring Program for empowering our community here in Chester County, PA!

On August 25, 2026, Handi-Crafters had the great pleasure of welcoming Senator Katie Muth back to our organization for an incredible day of connection and impact.

Joined by her Chief of Staff, Nikki Whitlock, members of our Board of Directors, and organization leadership, Senator Muth spent the afternoon revisiting our campus, connecting with our staff, and hearing the inspiring stories of our program participants and volunteers.

On this remarkable day, Handi-Crafters was also honored to receive a Senate Citation on behalf of Senator Katie Muth and Senator Carolyn Comitta to recognize our 65 years of service in Chester County, PA. 📦

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Senator Muth and Nikki Whitlock for spending this meaningful and mission-driven day with us at Handi-Crafters!
