💙 Thank you to everyone who joined us for our annual Women United Fall Social and Service Event last night!

It was a wonderful evening of connection, community, and giving back as we partnered with YWCA Lancaster to support their Sexual Assault Prevention and Counseling Center (SAPCC), one of our current grantees.

From donating and organizing essential items to writing notes of encouragement and support, our Women United community came together to make a meaningful difference for the individuals and families served by SAPCC.

We’re so grateful for everyone who showed up, gave generously, and continues to champion the strength and well-being of women in Lancaster County. Together, we’re building a stronger, more supportive community for all. 💙

Happy 15th anniversary 211! 🎈

Thursday, October 1st marks 15 years of the three-digit dialing code 211 being activated for Berks and Lancaster Counties. Our name changed from United Way LINC to what we are now…Pennsylvania 211 East. In these 15 years, 211 has had 355,184 live agent interactions with Lancaster County neighbors!

📌 Fun fact…the very first phone call was fielded by Patricia, our current Director of PA 211 East, and it was from United Way of Berks County’s Senior VP of Impact welcoming 211 to Berks County.
