Happy National First Responders Day!
 
Today, we’re giving a big thank you to the first responders who show up for Coatesville and our surrounding communities. Whether it’s responding to an emergency or helping a neighbor in need, we’re grateful for the people who step up when others need them most.
 
Outside of her day job, Alyssa joins the First Responder Family through ski patrol, helping provide emergency care and transportation to those who need it on the slopes!
 
Alyssa stopped by the Coatesville Flower Shop today to pick up a rose as part of their first responder appreciation. Thank you to the shop for spreading a little kindness and to all of our local first responders for everything you do for our community. We appreciate you!

Thank you to the 135+ attendees who joined AHE for our 2026 Impact Summit!

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who took the time to come together for a day of learning, connection, and conversation about the future of Greater Coatesville.

From our panel discussions and breakout sessions to the screening of The Hands That Shape Tomorrow, yesterday was a powerful reminder of the importance of coming together, sharing ideas, and learning from one another. Especially during times of need, collaboration and strong community connections are more important than ever. Yesterday was a wonderful example of what we can accomplish when we come together with a shared commitment to our community.

Thank you to our speakers, facilitators, exhibitors, sponsors, and attendees for making this day possible. We are grateful to grow alongside you and look forward to continuing this important work together!

We had SUCH an amazing and powerful time today at the Beyond the Ribbon Wellness Festival at Abdala Park.

To everyone who came out, thank you. Thank you for showing up, supporting survivors, and helping us celebrate the strength, courage, and resilience of those whose stories continue to inspire others every day.

To the survivors who joined us, thank you for sharing your stories, your light, and your spirit with all of us. Your strength is powerful, and we’re so grateful you came and allow us to celebrate you a bit with our pink carpet walk.

To those who came to honor and represent loved ones we’ve lost, thank you. Thank you for carrying their stories, their strength, and their memory with you. We know they were with us today in spirit.

And to everyone who helped bring this event to life, thank you. From planning and organizing to providing resources and creating a space for connection, you helped us kick off Breast Cancer Awareness Month in a meaningful way.

There was so much love, strength, and community in one place today. We’re leaving the day feeling incredibly grateful. 💗

Thank you for making Beyond the Ribbon so special.
