Since 2012 when Centre Gives began, it has benefited over 200 local charities throughout the county, enhancing services across many interest areas – arts and culture, animals, education, historic sites, environment, and health & social services. We are grateful to be a part of this incredible opportunity and extend our sincere thanks to Centre Foundation, The Hamer Foundation, and the businesses that support Centre Gives.
We are beyond thankful for the incredible generosity given to the Centre County Historical Society during Centre Gives.
