The ExtraGive | November 20, 2026

Lancaster County’s 24-hour Day of Giving. The ExtraGive is an invitation to every individual who cares about a cause to join forces and give a little EXTRA. Every dollar will be stretched by Lancaster County Community Foundation’s shared stretch pool.

Why Support SWAN During ExtraGive?

The 24-hour Lancaster ExtraGive is where we raise the most to support our music programs and students.

By supporting SWAN, you will:

– Give joy and hope to children in crisis
– Empower children to rise above their present and difficult circumstances
– Impact students’ scholastic, emotional, and social development

If you haven’t donated to SWAN before, the ExtraGive is a great time to get involved! Please consider supporting our students this year.

Testimonial
“

It has been a tremendous experience working with SWAN. Watching the investment of time, resources, and meaningful mentoring is really making a difference! The team of teachers, counselors, and other staff were wonderful to work with. Seeing the students grow socially, emotionally, and musically was really special.
