On International Women’s Day, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and achievements of women everywhere. Today, we honor the women who give back to their communities and inspire change.
Let’s continue to uplift and empower one another—today and every day.
A big thank you to Alayna Lopez and Will Kadri from @cnbankpa for presenting a $10,000 check to BCOC! This donation through the Neighborhood Assistance Tax Credit Program will benefit our Economic Self-Sufficiency Program—empowering low-income families with the education and resources they need to thrive.
Thank you to our incredible volunteers and sponsors for making this year’s Coldest Night of the Year a huge success!

Sharing the love! This past Valentine’s Day, students from Sol Feinstone Elementary School assembled hygiene kits and buddy bags for BCOC’s Street Outreach Team to distribute to those in need.
