Our vision is clear – Community Progress Council wants all York County residents to achieve economic stability. We believe that everyone deserves an opportunity to live life to its fullest potential.
Will you give a gift to support low-income families right here in York County?
When Odelia and Vance came to Community Progress Council, they faced homelessness. Credit was a challenge, and both had career goals and hopes of finding better employment. The road ahead was long. But, thanks to their Coach at Community Progress Council, Odelia and Vance had someone in their corner to provide the encouragement, motivation, and accountability they needed. In January, they and their two children moved into their apartment. Vance is working toward his GED and now makes $7/hour more than last summer.
“It has been a long and stressful process,” Vance said. “I’m proud that I’m in a place now where I can actually financially provide for my family, with a little bit more stability.”
Through it all, Odelia and Vance were not alone — thanks in part to generous donors like you who support Community Progress Council and our programs.
Your support through Give Local York will help a family like Odelia and Vance make real progress.
Your gift is a direct investment in the future of York County and the lives of nearly 14,000 people that Community Progress Council served last year. It's an opportunity to make a profound impact, demonstrating your commitment to building a community where everyone has the chance to succeed.
Odelia and Vance are just two of thousands of people working to break the cycle of poverty. You can make a difference.
Our goal is to raise $60,000 in one day on Give Local York!
Every dollar raised during Give Local York supports Community Progress Council's comprehensive, integrated services, providing the necessary resources for long-term support as families navigate challenges and work toward a brighter future.

As York County’s community action agency, Community Progress Council provides comprehensive, integrated services that offer resources and support for individuals and families to move toward self-sufficiency.
We work with low- and moderate-income people of all ages in York County to examine their current situations and determine how our programs best align with their needs.
Our low income assistance programs aim to create a bridge from crisis to self-sufficiency: To empower individuals and low-income families to rise above poverty, identify long-term goals and move themselves toward independence from external assistance.
