Gandhi once said that the best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.

With that in mind, the Brandywine Health Foundation is looking for volunteers for this year’s Strawberry Festival, the four-day extravaganza that has become a staple of fun across the Chester County landscape and is a critical fundraiser that benefits the community in a myriad of ways.

Volunteers will receive free parking, a fashionable Strawberry Festival t-shirt, and most importantly, the satisfaction of being involved with a wonderful community event. Volunteer support has a transformative impact in the greater Coatesville area through the following beneficiaries: The Coatesville Youth Initiative, Coatesville Area Public Library, Thorndale Volunteer Fire Company, and the Coatesville Rotary Club. Together, they are helping to make the Coatesville area a healthy, safe, and vibrant community.

There is limited availability for volunteers, so please sign up today.
