CWS Lancaster invites you to Save the Date of Thursday, May 7th for our annual Community Appreciation Breakfast. This breakfast will be a time where we thank the Lancaster community for the many ways that you have assisted refugees and other displaced persons throughout the past year.

We will start the morning with a buffet breakfast followed by a brief program. This year, our speaker will be Karen Williams, author of the children's book, Four Feet, Two Sandals. In this touching story, ten-year-olds Lina and Feroza meet at a refugee camp in Pakistan. They become fast friends as they share one pair of sandals between the two of them.

Karen was inspired to write the picture book when a friend came to her with the story of a refugee girl in the United States who wanted to know why there were no books about children like her.
