🌟 Volunteer Spotlight: Meet Anna! 🌟

Anna Baldini is a retired teacher and coach from the Camp Hill School District who leads with heart and joy in everything she does. A passionate golfer (and proud member of several summer leagues), Anna loves spending time with her family – especially her nieces and nephews – and hitting the links with her friends.

Anna volunteers with the Beam Teams because she believes deeply in the mission of LHM Foundation and the power of being part of something bigger than herself. As a reception volunteer for our Horizons transitional housing program, Anna finds meaning connecting with participants and witnessing the hope and growth that comes from such a caring community.

We’re so grateful for Anna’s energy, generosity, and lifelong commitment to helping others thrive. Thank you, Anna!

Thank you, Dauphin County! LHM Foundation’s 2025 Local Share Municipal (“Gaming”) Grant award helped us furnish several resident units for our Horizons transitional housing program. 🪑

🛏️ Each unit at Horizons is furnished with sturdy, “dorm-style” furniture: a bed, chest of drawers, table and chair, microwave and mini-fridge. Consistent high-quality furnishings across units helps to promote equity among program participants and fosters a sense of belonging as participants begin to take steps toward housing stability. 🚶‍♂️

✨Light Up Horizons! ✨

LHM Foundation’s 30 room sponsors helped make it possible for us to open our Horizons transitional housing program to those experiencing homelessness in January. Each window represents one of 58 resident units within the Horizons facility, designed to value the dignity of each participant and foster stability for those on a path to permanent, stable housing.

Sponsorships are available at the individual ($10,000) or family ($25,000) support level. Send us a message, visit our website, or contact Ellen Abbott, Director of Development, at ellen.abbott@lhm-foundation.org for more information.

🌟 Volunteer Spotlight: Meet Greg Kemerer! 🌟

Greg Kemerer has been married to his amazing wife, Jen, for 18 years and is a proud dad to their son, Sam. As a Beam Team volunteer with LHM Foundation, Greg serves with a heart full of gratitude—giving back because he’s been blessed so much himself.

When he’s not volunteering, Greg enjoys movie nights with his family, going on cruises, and spending time with their four rescue cats (all named after characters from Lord of the Rings 🐾✨). We’re so thankful for Greg’s joyful spirit and the care he brings to our community!

Thank you to EWI of Harrisburg for their generous donation of books to the Dygert Family Children’s Playroom at our Horizons transitional housing facility. We loved filling the bookshelves with new stories! These books will give the children in our program a chance to learn, imagine, and enjoy reading every day.
