NORRISTOWN â A virtual version of Corks & Forks on May 13 at 6 p.m. will tempt taste buds and hopefully raise funds to benefit The Senior Adult Activities Center of Montgomery Countyâs  two senior centers, inter-generational Art Center at Ambler and the all-important Meals on Wheels program.
âWeâre partnering with local restaurants and beverage vendors to provide chef and bartender demonstrations virtually for that evening,â noted Melissa Buckminster, director of marketing for Montco SAAC. âNormally, this is something where we provide tastings for everybody that attends the event, but with COVID rates being what they are in Montgomery County, that is not happening right now. But we are providing the virtual demonstrations and performances form musical guests and a silent auction that will be held virtually as well.â

Boyertown Area Multi-Service launched its new Homelessness Task Force thanks to a fundraising campaign with a matching donation from a local bank.
During the month of March, the Multi-Service raised more than $14,000 through its Stronger Together Campaign. Ambler Savings Bank helped kick off the campaign by matching dollar-for-dollar every donation up to $5,000.
Multi-Service teamed up with The United Way of Boyertown to prioritize homelessness as a critical need in the community by creating the Task Force to offer rapid response to those in crisis, the two organizations announced in a release.
