Aaron’s Acres Families Benefit From Altruistic Attorneys

BY JEFF FALK

Aaron’s Acres is committed to providing support for families affected by disabilities. While Aaron’s Acres has a variety of resources at its disposal, the local nonprofit also has the wherewithal to access resources it doesn’t possess - resources that are available through organizations like the Lancaster Law Foundation.

“Aaron’s Acres recently received a grant that supports families in need of legal services as they plan for their children who have disabilities,” said Risa Paskoff, Aaron’s Acres’ executive director. “It was a great way to help families begin the challenging conversation of how to plan for their children’s futures, especially as the parents age. Lawyers gave of their time and met with our families for initial conversations. Funds from this grant are then available if

families wish to continue the conversations with the attorneys.”

“The mission of the Lancaster

Bar Association and the Lancaster Law Foundation is to advance justice in the community and enhance

Penlanco FCU Donates to Local Fire Companies

Penlanco Federal Credit Union (FCU) recently hosted its sixth annual designer purse bingo, which raised more than $12,242 to benefit two volunteer fire service organizations: Lancaster Township Fire Department and Blue Rock Fire Rescue.

These two volunteer fire companies perform important work in the community by responding to emergencies, protecting lives and property, and serving out of care for others. The funds raised will help both departments maintain

that feeling of community,” said Mackenzie Haines, the Lancaster Bar Association’s director of programs and community initiatives. “Fellowship and justice are just two of our core values, and they really sum up what we do. We want to be in the community helping people out.”

A philanthropic arm of the Lancaster Bar Association, the Lancaster Law Foundation conducted its Planning With a Purpose Clinic for families served by Aaron’s Acres on Sept. 16 at Manor Church, 530 Central Manor Road, Lancaster. The three-hour event consisted of the Aaron’s Acres families meeting face-to-face and one-on-one with local attorneys for 30 minutes to discuss the legal challenges that can arise when family members are disabled.

The attorneys’ work was performed on a pro bono basis.

Without hope, there is nothing. Services that provide hope where there once was none or little can be life changing.

Now I Can Foundation deals in the business of hope.

“Only God can make miracles happen,” said Allison Ebersole, Now I Can’s executive director.

“The main goal was to give families peace of mind,” said Haines. “Oftentimes, it can be a daunting conversation to start. We were so happy to pair with Aaron’s Acres to get it started.”

A total of 10 families dealing with disabilities attended the Planning With a Purpose Clinic, and half of those families decided to have further legal discussions with lawyers. Portions of the costs of those future consultations will be funded through the grant that Aaron’s Acres obtained from the Lancaster Law Foundation.

Among the legal issues discussed were guardianship, special needs trusts and financial and educational planning.

“Overall, it was a great meeting and a great environment,” said Haines. “Aaron’s Acres reached out to the foundation and told us they had families in need. The bar association asked attorneys to do the work pro bono, and they were happy to be there giving back.”

After Aaron’s Acres applied for the $3,000 grant, its request was reviewed and approved by a Lancaster Law Foundation committee.

Aaron’s Acres is headquartered at 1861 Charter Lane, Suite 114, Lancaster.

“We gave the grant to Aaron’s Acres for them to use at their discretion,” said Haines, “and that money covered some of the legal fees. (The legal clinic) spurred more conversations involving families’ futures. But for some, they weren’t quite ready to think

about the future.”

The grant to Aaron’s Acres was one of seven that have been awarded to similar organizations by the Lancaster Law Foundation this year. Also receiving financial support were Lancaster city’s Bench Mark Program, the Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program, Church World Service, MidPenn Legal Services, Tenfold and Pennsylvania Immigration Resource Center (PIRC).

The grants awarded to those seven organizations were valued at $53,445.

“The main goal of the grants is the same as the Lancaster Law Foundation’s, which is to promote equality and expand justice across Lancaster County,” said Haines. “You can see that the clinic fits into a lot of those categories. The foundation’s executive board has a grant committee that collects grant requests, reviews them and makes decisions.”

The Lancaster Law Foundation was formed in 2002. Since 2020, the foundation has awarded $353,000 in grants.

“We’re well known in the legal community,” said Haines. “But outside of that, I don’t think people know about the work we’re doing. We’d like to do more, and anything we could do to expand in any way would be wonderful.”

Located at 28 E. Orange St., Lancaster, the Lancaster Bar Association boasts nearly 800 members - lawyers, judges, legal professionals and law students.

“A lot of our lawyers are involved in the community,” said Haines. “Oftentimes, they’re looking to give back. They have so much expertise. Anytime they get a chance to go out into the community, they love that.”

DCA and Lions Club Set Food Drive

Last year, Dayspring Christian Academy’s Class of 2033 donated more than 400 items to the Columbia Food Bank.

Members of the Dayspring Christian Academy (DCA) chapter of the National Honor Society (NHS) will partner with the Mountville Lions Club for the fifth annual food drive to benefit the Columbia Food Bank.

Local residents are encouraged to stop by the Mountville Church of the Brethren, 60 Clay St., Mountville, on Friday, Dec. 5, from 8 to 11:30 a.m. to help fill the donation truck with nonperishable goods. In the case of snow, the food drive will be held on Friday, Dec. 12. Members of Dayspring’s NHS chapter, as well as the Mountville Lions Club, will be on hand to help unload donations.

Donations that will be accepted include unexpired nonperishables, such as canned fruits, vegetables, soups, meats, peanut butter,

jelly, pasta sauce, and boxed cereal.

DCA students will collect food in their classrooms between Dec. 1 and 5. Classes that collect an average of four items per student will be eligible for a dress-down day later in the school year. The class with the highest average of donated items will receive a pizza party.

Last year, Dayspring’s NHS members collected more than 2,200 pounds of food for the Columbia Food Bank. The food bank’s mission is to help end food insecurity in Lancaster County. Since January 2010, the Columbia Food Bank has served more than 35,000 people, assisting over 17,000 households in areas such as Columbia, Mountville, West Hempfield Township, and Manor Township.

“But we’re helping make miracles happen, and we’re giving families hope. The sooner we can (start working with) kids, the better chance we have of making a change.”

Located at 100 W. Millport Road, Lititz, Now I Can Foundation Northeast aims to provide hope to families with children disabled by disorders like cerebral palsy, spina bifida and other gross motor delays and genetic conditions. The results don’t lie.

“Some of our patients come in not walking. Some leave walking. Some leave running,” said Ebersole. “I love being able to see the change that the therapists can make. I like being able to connect with families. I love when moms cry, because that was me with my daughter. They’re tears of

happiness. Until you live it, you can’t understand it. I’ve been in a similar boat for 16 years.”

The secret to the Now I Can Foundation’s success is the relatively basic concept of intensive physical therapy. It’s similar to regular physical therapy, only ramped up a few intensity notches.

At Now I Can, pediatric patients condense 57 hours of physical therapy into a three-week period, something like four hours a day, five days a week, depending upon the age of the patient and the condition. Many traditional models offer 40 hours of physical therapy a year - 45-minute sessions once a week for 48 weeks.

“Children with neurological challenges need repetitions and they need thousands of repe -

titions,” said Ebersole. “It’s that concentrated effort that makes a difference. It’s teaching the brain new paths to do things in a different way.”

Now I Can’s intensive physical therapy is designed for patients between the ages of 10 months and 18 years. Partly due to the intensive nature of the therapy,

Now I Can treats between two and eight patients during any three-week time frame. Those patients reside in Lancaster County and the surrounding counties of Lebanon, York, Dauphin and Bucks. Thirty percent of Now I Can’s kids come from outside of Pennsylvania.

“They are children whose parents have hope for them to be able to reach goals others have thought impossible for them,” said Ebersole. “There are very few providers who use intensive physical therapy around. We’re the only one in the state of Pennsylvania. There’s an extreme need for it. One of the biggest problems we have is that locally people don’t know that we exist. To me, that’s a really big issue. As much as we want to help the world, we really want to help

they’re here, we hear kids say, ‘Now I can.’ We hear it from parents too. We have kids coming here needing walkers and then not having to use walkers anymore.”

Now I Can Foundation Northeast opened its doors in 2022 after borrowing some of its treatment models from Now I Can Foundation in Orem, Utah. Ebersole’s daughter Lauren, now 16, made significant progress in her experience with cerebral palsy during family visits to Now I Can in Utah when she was younger.

“This year is a pivotal year for (Now I Can) because we’ve really been growing,” said Ebersole. “Each year we’ve been growing, and we have tons of space. We’re looking to add more therapists so we can treat more kids. We want to help kids with disabilities reach their full potentials.”
