August 2022 The East Cocalico Township Police Department is hosting National Night Out again this year. The event is scheduled for Tuesday August 2nd and will be held at the Reamstown Park. There will be free food, games and entertainment. The event runs from 6pm until 9pm. Instead of doing the Back to School Bash on our own this year, we will be handing out backpacks at National Night Out! Hear from one of our parents about her experience with the backpacks!  "The backpack program is amazing. When Jordan was ready to go to school, we had no idea how we were gonna get his school supplies and backpack. I got an email from REAL Life saying that they had everything kids needed for school. I was so overjoyed and went to see. They had games and prizes when you pick them up! It was a huge help!! I highly recommend it! We have been doing it ever since!!" - A happy parent! THIS FRIDAY is our First Friday Food Drive!  Power Packs Registration now open— Cocalico School District families that qualify for free and reduced lunches also qualify for Power Packs, a weekly educational program with a healthy recipe, the main ingredients to make that recipe, and a couple of staple food items, like milk and eggs!

Summer is a time of family fun, getting away, and taking a break from our worries and struggles in life! With the busyness of summer, we usually see a decline in donations when there is usually a decline in need to balance it out. Unfortunately, this summer, we've seen an increase in homelessness, food insecurity, and poverty!
