At UDS Foundation, we are always grateful for the incredible people who help make our work possible day in and day out. It truly takes an army of dedicated individuals, and we are thankful for each and every one of them.

Today, we're especially proud to celebrate two remarkable milestones. Please join us in congratulating Deborah Scheidt and Marjorie Michel-Frederic on 10 years of service to UDS Foundation!

Thank you both for your dedication, commitment, and the countless ways you've helped advance our mission over the past decade. We are fortunate to have you as part of the UDS family.

Sam & Dena Lombardo, on behalf of Benecon and SN Lombardo Capital, recently visited Chevy and her 6-week-old puppies as our very first Litter Sponsors. As part of this unprecedented sponsorship level, they had the special opportunity to help select names for the puppies during their visit.

We are incredibly grateful for the Lombardos’ generous contribution and support of the UDS Service Dogs Program. Their commitment helps make it possible for us to continue training exceptional service dogs that provide life-changing assistance and independence to individuals within our community.

We look forward with anticipation to seeing which puppies will be selected to enter our program in the coming weeks and are excited to begin their journey toward becoming future service dogs.

This Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness are the foundation of the freedoms we enjoy every day.

At UDS Foundation, remembrance is more than reflection — it’s responsibility.

That’s why we remain committed to serving those who served us through our Veterans Services programs, helping veterans and their families access the support, resources, and care they deserve long after the uniform comes off.

Today, we pause to remember the fallen.

Tomorrow, we continue the mission of supporting the living.

From all of us at UDS Foundation, we wish everyone a meaningful and safe Memorial Day.

Independence starts with the right support!

At UDS, our Independent Living Services help individuals build essential life skills—from budgeting and meal planning to daily routines—so they can live confidently and independently in their communities.

And if you or your loved ones need a little extra support at home, they also provide compassionate, in-home, non-medical care for individuals with disabilities, older adults, and those recovering from surgery or injury.

Beyond 60: Your Impact. Our Journey. welcomed more than 500 guests and raised an amazing $539,123 to support older adults and individuals with disabilities living with greater independence, dignity, and opportunity.

From our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and committee members to everyone who attended, bid in the auctions, purchased raffle tickets, or supported the Live Appeal.........THANK YOU. Your generosity made this unforgettable evening possible.

When our keynote speaker, John Kruk, was unexpectedly unable to attend the event, our incredible team quickly rallied to welcome Philadelphia Phillies legends Mickey Morandini and Tommy Greene alongside Philadelphia Eagles Insider Dave Spadaro and WGAL News Channel 8 Susquehanna Valley, Pa. Michael Fuller TV for a memorable fireside chat that guests loved.

The evening was also filled with powerful stories from UDS participants and families that reminded us all why this mission matters so deeply.

Thank you for helping make the 2026 UDS Foundation Gala such a meaningful and successful celebration. Here’s to changing lives for 60+ more years!
