The A Week Away Foundation

Can you believe we’re halfway through 2024 already? We wanted to check in to highlight that we’ve planned 28 Respites this year. Here’s to many more families finding reprieve through Respite trips this year and in the years to come.

The 10th Annual Caleb Walker Memorial Golf Tournament is two months away, and we can hardly wait. It is on par to be a great event! ⛳️

This month is all about connection! We're highlighting some of our amazing Partners in Mission and sharing the inspiring stories of how we've come together to support families facing illness. Be sure to check out the article to learn more! 

Looking back through photos from last year's golf tournament makes us even more excited for this year's event. This is always the best day of the year! You can join in on the fun, too. Limited sponsorships are still available. Please feel free to reach out to us for more information.

Our Partner in Mission, The Jeff Musser Foundation, is holding its annual golf tournament on June 17! The event features 18 holes of golf, games, prizes, and silent live auctions. The highlight, however, is an introduction to one of the families the Foundation has been privileged to assist. You can visit jeffmusserfoundation.org for more information on their mission and upcoming events.

We are so grateful to our team. Their hard work is what makes AWA great, and their dedication makes a world of difference for families facing illness.

Volunteering for a cause you care about benefits the community and YOU! Read our latest blog post on how volunteering can be an empowering way to boost your mental well-being:

We are extending a very big “Thank You!” to Lancaster County Motors Subaru for their outstanding donation of $28,000! This incredible contribution will directly fund Respites for families battling life-threatening illnesses. Thanks to their compassion and generosity, more families will receive the gift of Respite, allowing them to recharge and face their challenges with renewed strength. We are so grateful for long-time partners like Lancaster County Motors Subaru. Together, we can continue to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need.

Did you know? 1 in 185 people will be diagnosed with Brain Cancer in their lifetime. May is Brain Cancer Awareness Month, and this cause hits close to home for us. Let’s work together to uplift those who are battling brain cancer or who have loved ones battling it by spreading awareness and showing them extra support this May.
