A Good Thyme for Life Raffle
This week is traditionally “Restaurant Week” for our annual Good Thyme For Life fundraiser. We usually celebrate the first week of March with good food and good friends —raising money to support our mission of improving public health through service, education and advocacy.
This year, we‘ve modified our fundraiser due to the impact of the pandemic. Rather than ask restaurants to donate funds from sales as they have so graciously in the past, we’re asking our community to simply support those local restaurants because they need us. And to participate in our Grand raffle.
Our Good Thyme For Life fundraiser provides funding for our overall operations each year. Our Grand raffle is an effort to replace a portion of those funds. So we’re asking our friends and supporters to purchase raffle tickets or consider a donation to GTFL.
The raffle tickets will be sold at $20 a piece or 3 for $50, during the month of March. The drawing will be held on Tuesday, March 30, 2021 at the CCWS offices at 429 Walnut Street. Cash prizes remain the same as in previous years $1,000, $500, and $250.
For more information call Barbara or Lizz – (610) 375-6523
Proceeds benefit Co-County Wellness Services (CCWS). The mission of CCWS is to improve public health through service, education and advocacy.
The Sophisticated Palette will be postponed…
Our upcoming Sophisticated Palette event, honoring Kevin Murphy and William Bender, has been indefinitely canceled, due to COVID-19.
We hope to rescheduled for it sometime in 2021.
Coronavirus Contact Tracing
As part of our mission to improve the public health of our community, CCWS has been running contract tracing for COVID-19 since June of 2020.
In a partnership with the Pennsylvania Department of Health and funded by the County of Berks, we have trained volunteers and part-time staff to support this effort.
For questions about the program, call 610-375-6523
