Gift cards to big box stores, low-cost hair and shoe businesses, and office supply stores always welcome! Drop off at 100 Doyle Street, Doylestown between now and August 17th. #BacktoSchool #BeCommunityAction

With rising costs, BCOC is bringing you a guide to low cost or free activities for families to do in the summer throughout Bucks County. As a part of BCOC's Healthy Families Initiative, we recognize the importance of time spent together as a family and want to provide different ways to create lifelong memories.

When families do not have sufficient resources to meet basic needs, they forgo pool memberships, swimming lessons, bikes, summer fun activities, etc. We recognize that with a small amount of assistance, we can have a life changing effect on the family.
So, BCOC, with support from @FCPartnership, created our Healthy Family Initiative to fund these summer fun activities for our clients in ongoing programs.
This initiative promotes quality family time, allow kids to participate in summer activities, reduce likelihood of drownings, strengthen relationships, and build community support networks.
