Jonestown Bank & Trust Co. (JBT) recently donated $25,000 to Hope Served in Manheim as part of JBT's participation in Pennsylvania's Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP).

Hope Served focuses on coming alongside individuals with disabilities to provide hope and support through career development, housing opportunities, and participation in the local community.

According to Steve Schwartz, executive director of Hope Served, the funds will help the nonprofit bring additional career development and job opportunities to the people it serves. The nonprofit is working to launch a workforce development center that will provide job training and paid employment to individuals with disabilities through a teaching kitchen and restaurant.
