                      Celebrating 50 years of Service to our Community! 

 

This is a very special year for us. On August 21, 2023, we celebrated 50 years of service to our community! We have accomplished so much in the past 50 years and we are very, very proud of our continued commitment to provide comprehensive behavioral treatment options, education and support to the individuals and families of Bucks County.           

         How Can You Be a Part of our Mission? You Can Help Us with our ANNUAL APPEAL   

We are a private, non-profit community mental health center, financed by several sources – client fees, County and State funds, public and private grants, third-party payments and private donations. Since reimbursement rates do not cover the full expense of our programs, we must rely on donations to help us fund some of the extra costs we incur to assist the individuals and families who come to us for help.

Please consider making a donation so we can continue the great work we do in Bucks County communities. Your contribution, no matter the size, can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve. If you wonder what your donation means to the individuals and families we serve………..

A donation of $30 can purchase school supplies for families who cannot afford them, or art supplies for an Art Therapy Group.

A donation of $50 can purchase three bags of food for families who utilize Cares Cupboard, our Food Pantry, or purchase two winter coats for children who receive our services and have none.

A donation of $100 can purchase bus/train passes for up to 8 people each month to help them get to treatment, or pay for one night of temporary housing for someone who is homeless.

 

Please go to our website: www.penndelmhc.org and then to the “How Can I Help” dropdown. Then choose “Donations” and you will find a DONATE button. You can also send a check, made out to Penndel Mental Health Center, to Penndel Mental Health Center 2005 Cabot Blvd Langhorne, PA 19047, ATTN: Annual Appeal.

 

                                                 PMHC is a private, not-for-profit 501 (c)(3) organization. All donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.

CELEBRATING OUR 50th ANNIVERSARY!

Hello everyone. On August 21, 2023, we celebrated 50 years of service to our community!  We have accomplished so much in the past 50 years and we are very, very proud of our continued commitment to provide comprehensive behavioral treatment options, education and support to the individuals and families of Bucks County.   

One of the many ways we are acknowledging and celebrating this major milestone is with a new slogan! In May, we initiated a contest, looking to our creative, innovative and talented staff, to help us to come up with a new slogan to use for the next 50 years that will reflect our commitment to growth and expansion in the community.

PMHC employees responded and submitted twenty-one (21) different slogans to consider. The PMHC Re-Branding Committee voted and our new slogan submitted by Anitra, is:

 Your Stepping Stone to a Brighter Tomorrow 

The Re-Branding Committee chose their top three selections, and the following three employees, who submitted those top three slogans, received prizes for their efforts.  They are:

1. Anitra
2. Kripaya
3. Judy

Our next step is to work with a marketing firm to design a new logo for the agency. Stay tuned for more exciting news, as we prepare for the next 50 years of dedicated services to our community.

   HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US!
