Supporting our youth
Last year the Bar Foundation provided $74,500 in grant funding to support dependent and delinquent youth through the Henry Lenz Memorial Fundβthe largest amount ever granted in a single year in this fundβs history! Some of that funding allowed The Advantage Program to purchase a "super van" and provide their kids with incredible opportunities.
Your support of the Bar Foundation makes lifechanging impact. Help keep this essential work going by making a donation today: www.yorkbar.com/donations
