OAEA Effort Benefits Food Cupboard, The POINT Through the years, members of the Octorara Area Education Association (OAEA) paid to dress casually during the last week of school, with the proceeds going to the Octorara Area Food Cupboard.
With school closed this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, the OAEA chose to support both the Octorara Area Food Cupboard and the Parkesburg POINT youth center with a fundraiser called “Sweating for the Octorara Community.” As part of the program, the OAEA
invited staff members in the Octorara Area School District to donate to one or both nonprofit organizations through an online form. They were then encouraged to upload a picture of themselves wearing their sweats to go along with the theme of the event, which was “Sweat it out, so our community organizations don’t have to worry.” Carol Dittoe, OAEA communications chair, reported that the first-time fundraising event was very successful. “We had a great outpouring of both contributions and pictures,” said Dittoe. “In one week, the OAEA raised $2,745 for the Octorara Food Cupboard plus (collected) over 100 pounds of food donations, and (we raised) $2,025 for The POINT. “
OAEA president Amanda Kieffer pointed out that during a normal year, the entire Octorara Area School District is invited to participate in the dress-down event during the last week of school. “(This includes) teachers, counselors, classroom assistants, secretarial and clerical staff, medical staff, psychologists, administrators (and others),” she stated. For this year’s effort, photos were posted on the Pennsylvania State Education Association (PSEA) website’s feed and on the district’s social media outlets. “Teachers and staff were encouraged to include their families in the pictures to show the family connection with our community,” said Kieffer. Dittoe pointed out that donation amounts were registered virtually and

Biking The Road: Tips For Safe Riding The advent of summer typically coincides with an increase of bicyclists on the roads. For some riders, cycling is a form of transportation. For others, it is a mode of relaxation and recreation. For everyone, however, safety is paramount. Lancaster Bicycle Club safety director John Mullineaux listed two overarching principles for safe riding: wear a helmet and behave like a vehicle. Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) requires anyone under the age of 12 to wear a helmet, whether they are operating the bicycle or participating as a passenger on a bike or a bike-pulled trailer. PennDOT does not mandate helmets for riders age 12 and older, but it strongly recommends that everyone wears a helmet. Mullineaux agreed, saying, “Wear a helmet. They do help an enormous amount. I’m 70 years old, and I wear a helmet every time I ride.” Although helmets are regulated for children, the age at which youngsters may ride on the road is

Lancaster Bicycle Club safety director John Mullineaux encourages cyclists to wear helmets and behave like vehicles to be safe on the road. not. Instead, that privilege depends on the training and the skill level of the individual rider. Some area school districts provide education to middlegrade students to encourage them to ride bicycles to school. See Biking pg 2
Now more than ever, thanks to jobs and wages lost while the stay-at-home order was in place, resources for people experiencing homelessness or at risk of losing their homes are in demand. Thankfully, Good Samaritan Services (GSS), which serves individuals and families in Lancaster and Chester counties who have poverty-related needs, is prepared to help. “We provide a wide spectrum of services that are customizable to each individual or family at whatever place they are at in their journey to stability,” said Shadoe Settle, GSS
development and communications coordinator. “Our services are always expanding. Right now, we provide emergency shelter, residential housing, and housing support services to men, women, and families in Lancaster and Chester counties. Serving men is a new ability in Lancaster County, and we are very excited about it.” See EPC Golf Outing pg 6
The annual EPC Golf Outing on Sept. 25 will benefit Good Samaritan Services, which provides a range of services to assist individuals overcoming homelessness in Lancaster and Chester counties.

that the money was donated directly to each charity’s website. Individual families donated nonperishable food items directly to the food cupboard. “People were able to choose between the two organizations, but most donated to both,” Dittoe stated. “We chose these two because they are both vital services to the community.” The Octorara Area Food Cupboard provides supplemental food assistance to eligible, low-income individuals and families in need.

Biking from pg 1 Regardless of age, behaving like a vehicle while riding a bicycle might not be intuitive, but it is worth practicing. According to Mullineaux, in Pennsylvania, cyclists have the right to ride wherever they think it is safe to do so, with the exclusion of riding against traffic. “Always ride with traffic. Always,” Mullineaux stressed. Pedestrians walk against traffic because they can quickly move to the side of the road when encountering oncoming vehicles. “If you’re riding a bicycle, you don’t have time to get over when you see a car coming toward you,” Mullineaux said. When Mullineaux learned to ride on the road, he was taught to put his wheels on the white fog line or stay as far to the edge of the road surface in the absence of the line. However, he later learned that doing so makes cyclists less visible to automobile drivers, it makes it tempting for drivers to try to squeeze by a bicycle, and there is nowhere to go if an animal runs in front of the bike or the

road contains an obstacle. “I like the shoulder, but if you don’t have a shoulder to ride on, the next safest place is to have your wheels in the same place as the right-hand tires of an automobile,” Mullineaux said. “(That way), in order for them to pass you, they must do a clean pass.” Mullineaux related that he once encountered a person at a safety presentation who was upset that cyclists were taking up part of a lane while ascending a hill. He asked the individual how they would have behaved if the cyclist had instead been a piece of heavy equipment, emphasizing that it is important to give cyclists the same respect. On one-way streets, Mullineaux regularly rides in the middle of a lane because vehicles can safely pass him in the adjacent lane. For single-lane roundabouts, which have been slowly cropping up in Lancaster County, cyclists should take the lane. Motorists may have to spend a few extra seconds getting through the roundabout, but it is

worth it to ensure everyone’s safety. To make left-hand turns on a two-way street, Mullineaux said that he gets close to the double yellow lines as soon as it is safe to do so and signals a turn. “If a car comes up behind me (and also plans to turn), they have to wait for me,” he remarked. Bicycle lanes are a prominent feature on some Lancaster city streets. On Walnut Street, most of the bike lane is against the sidewalk and protected from the left lane of traffic by a row of parking spaces. Anyone seated on the left side of parked vehicles must look to the lane behind their vehicle to ensure they do not open their doors into a cyclist’s path. Mullineaux shared that driver’s education courses are now teaching the Dutch Reach to open doors. Popularized by the Netherlands, where bicycles outnumber residents, the Dutch Reach is so named because a seated individual crosses their body with their opposite hand to open their car door. Doing so turns the individual’s body so it is more likely they see the lane

toward the rear of the vehicle and thus spot any approaching cyclists. On rural routes, cyclists may encounter horse-drawn carriages. Bicycles are almost always faster, although Mullineaux said he has been known to draft behind a buggy in the presence of a tailwind. To safely pass a horsedrawn vehicle, cyclists may ride close to the center line, making sure no drivers are coming toward them. Then, once they are well past the horse, riders may return to their original position on the road. “I sometimes wave (when passing), especially if there are kids in the back,” Mullineaux said. He offered a word of caution about sharing the road with horse-drawn conveyances, noting, “If you’re not paying attention, it’s easy to come upon a buggy unawares.” The Lancaster Bicycle Club offers educational resources and training on bike safety. Interested individuals may visit https://lancasterbikeclub.net/, click on the About tab and select “Safety Tips” and “Smart Cycling.”
Assist will award $25,000 grants to 40 nonprofit organizations to help fund neighborhood improvement projects. In a recent State Farm research study, one-quarter of respondents said that they are “extremely” or “very” involved in trying to improve their neighborhood and six in 10 said they are trying to improve their neighborhood in some capacity. State Farm Neighborhood Assist aims to be a catalyst for that change. Individuals can submit a cause at www.neighborhoodassist.com. A submission guide is available on the website. State Farm will accept the first 2,000 submissions. The State Farm Review Committee will then narrow the field to the top 200 finalists. Voters will decide which community improvement projects win. The public will have a chance to vote 10 times a day, every day for 10 days, from Wednesday, Sept. 23, through Friday, Oct. 2, for their favorite causes from the list of finalists. The 40 causes that receive the most votes will each win a $25,000 grant. Winners will be announced on Wednesday, Nov. 4. Last year, 163,000 people cast a total of 4.4 million votes in support of their favorite causes, selecting winners from small towns and big cities. Since the program began, State Farm has awarded $8 million in support of more than 300 causes.

customers and the community about the role bees play in getting food onto their family’s table, noted Nicholas Bertram, president of the Giant Company. Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture deputy secretary Cheryl Cook added that nearly one-third of the nation’s food supply depends on pollinators, making bees an essential part of the food supply chain and ecosystem. The Giant Company has also been selected as the first grocery retailer and first Pennsylvania participant to take part in the National Renewable Energy Laboratory’s InSPIRE study, where scientists measure and track the performance of the pollinatorfriendly ground cover for applications to future solar energy projects. In addition to the benefits of the plants, the new solar array coupled with the one currently installed on the roof of the Giant Company headquarters will reduce 4.5 million pounds of carbon dioxide in the environment and generate enough power for
the entire building. Native seed mixes provided by Ernst Conservation Seeds will act as a vegetative solution to beautify the site and provide valuable ecological functions. The Giant Company hopes the native meadow established will create a habitat for pollinators, birds and other small wildlife while improving the quality of the soil beneath it, reducing runoff and creating an attractive backdrop to the site. The field includes more than 20 varieties of wildflowers native to the northeast and central Pennsylvania like butterfly milkweed, mountain mint, blue mistflower and golden Alexander. Robin Ernst, president of Ernst Pollinator Service, explained that as the field matures over the next few years, more than one million pollinator-attracting plants will provide pollen and nectar sources for honey bees and other pollinators, which will in turn pollinate local farm fields.
Theater Reopens, Offers Free Admission Magic & Wonder Theater, 3065 Lincoln Highway, Paradise, specializing in family entertainment, has reopened. During July, it is offering free tickets to firefighters, police officers, EMTs, active and retired military personnel, and health care workers. For the past four years the Magic & Wonder Show performed at the Bird-In-Hand Stage. Now the newly renovated Magic & Wonder Theater, previously known as Rainbow Comedy Playhouse, is the troupe’s home. Their new show for 2020, “Worlds of Wonder,” will be the first show in the new space. This production features grand
illusions, comedy and variety arts that have not previously been possible due to venue size. The theater is set up with multiple sanitizing stations and socially distanced seating, and the team sanitizes the theater before, during and between performances. Team members check temperatures at the beginning of each shift and wear masks and gloves while interacting with guests. More information on the show as well as what the theater is doing to keep guests safe can be found at www.LancasterMagicShow.com. Those taking advantage of the free tickets can call 717-3233077 and mention the code
“Thank You.” Each worker may receive up to six tickets, including tickets for five guests. The offer is limited to availability.

The Giant Company also announced a new strategic partnership with Planet Bee Foundation. Based in San Francisco, Planet Bee is a nonprofit organization focused on driving awareness for pollinators while creating environmental stewards of all ages, in turn contributing to the well-being of bees. In celebration of the new partnership and National Pollinator Week, the Giant Company announced a $50,000 donation to Planet Bee Foundation. Planet Bee Foundation has constructed the beehives for the pollinator-friendly solar field and will tend to the health of the colonies as the bees provide their essential pollinator services to the local ecosystem. The foundation is also helping the Giant Company develop educational signs that will be installed along the on-campus walking path to drive awareness about the importance of bees to the grocery and agricultural supply chains.

In celebration of National Pollinator Week, the Giant Company recently announced it has completed a 7-acre pollinator-friendly solar field at its corporate headquarters at 1149 Harrisburg Pike in Carlisle. This initiative aims to create a synergistic environment, which contributes both to clean energy and support for bee and pollinator populations needed within the agriculture industry. Honey bees pollinate $15 billion worth of food crops in the United States each year, yet populations have been experiencing a decline for more than three decades, the Giant Company reported. Beekeepers across the United States lost an estimated 40.7% of their honey bee colonies from April 2018 to April 2019, according to the latest annual nationwide survey conducted by the University of Maryland-led nonprofit Bee Informed Partnership. A pollinator field provides Giant with an opportunity to educate team members,

Although the need for the services provided by GSS has increased, the organization has been able to keep the lives of its existing participants stable, thanks to support from the community. “Our ability to provide support and guidance during this time enabled all of our participants to remain in their housing, pay their bills, and continue life as normally as possible during such an abnormal time,” Settle said. As with other organizations, the delivery of services had to change, requiring flexibility from both the GSS team members and participants. GSS continued to provide emergency shelter and residential housing services while maintaining state-issued safety requirements and conducting cautious intakes for new clients. GSS family resource coordinators met with participants via Zoom, FaceTime, WhatsApp, and other virtualmeeting software to provide housing support services. The financial impact of COVID-19 will be felt for a long time to come, and GSS expects the need for its services to increase, Settle said. The nonprofit organization depends on donations and fundraisers to operate. One such fundraiser is the golf outing hosted by Engle Printing & Publishing Co., Inc. (EPC). “Our partnership with EPC and their willingness to organize such a wonderful event has been an incredible blessing, financially and relationally,” Settle remarked. “This is one of our biggest fundraisers of the year, and it has continued to provide funds needed to perform all of our services.” “We recognize the impact that this nonprofit has on our own neighbors in the same areas that we serve as a company,” said EPC
marketing director Lauren Hillegas. “We’re honored to build this relationship with GSS to assist them in aiding families right here in our community.” The 2019 EPC Golf Outing raised $20,000, and the goal this year is to meet or surpass that total with the help of golfers and sponsors, Hillegas said. The 13th annual EPC Golf Outing will be held on Friday, Sept. 25, at Crossgates Golf Club, 1 Crossland Pass, Millersville. Tee times of 7 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. are available. The event had initially been planned for June. “Like many other events this year, we were faced with the decision to cancel or reschedule our event,” Hillegas commented. “We know how much this event impacts families right here in our Lancaster County and Chester County communities, so we made the decision to reschedule the June outing for September. The health and safety of our golfers and volunteers was the main driving force behind this decision, and we look forward to what a fall golf outing for this event will look like.” The Tee It Forward contest hole that was introduced last year will be continued. Hillegas noted that while this year’s event will include bag lunches from Trio Bar and Grill, chicken barbecue from Peters’ BBQ will also be available. Chicken barbecue had been a feature of the EPC Golf Outings a few years ago, and Hillegas and her team are pleased to bring it back. For more information about the EPC Golf Outing, to register to play, or to sponsor the event, readers may visit www.epc golfouting.com.

during cardio workouts and group exercise classes. Staff members will wear masks at all times, except when leading a group exercise class. The latest cleaning protocols from the CDC have been implemented, including the use of EPA-registered solutions and electrostatic sprayers. Fitness equipment has been spaced out and group exercise studios have been reconfigured to ensure social distancing. An updated member code of conduct has also been implemented to ensure everyone works together to create the safest experience possible. Additional information about YGBW’s updated health and safety protocols and procedures can be found at www.ymcagbw.org/protecting -your-health-safetyonline. Six YGBW locations opened on June 29. The Oscar Lasko branch in West Chester is expected to reopen for fitness activities in the fall. It is currently open for summer camp and child care. Branches that are open are Brandywine YMCA, 295 Hurley Road, Coatesville; Jennersville YMCA, 880 W. Baltimore Pike, West Grove; Kennett Area YMCA, 101 Race St., Kennett Square; Lionville YMCA, 101 Devon Drive, Exton; Upper Main Line YMCA, 1416 Berwyn-Paoli Road, Berwyn; and West Chester YMCA, 605 Airport Road, West Chester. Notably, branch hours have been adjusted to allow ample time for cleaning and disinfecting. Hours are Mondays through Thursdays, 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Fridays, 6 a.m. to 7 p.m.; and Saturdays and Sundays, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Hours for those at high risk for COVID-19 are Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 3 p.m.
with an unprecedented pandemic adding urgency to the cause. Children’s hospitals and their systems are actively working to develop COVID-19 treatments and vaccines. At the same time, investments in telehealth service, personal protective equipment and coronavirus testing supplies have escalated hospitals’ expenses while the suspension of elective surgeries and routine procedures is costing hospitals revenue and impacting children in need of care. The Rite Aid Foundation will also direct funds raised through KidCents, its customer-generated charitable giving program dedicated to improving the health and well-being of children living in communities Rite Aid serves, through the duration of the campaign. In April, the foundation also issued a special $250,000 grant to CMN Hospitals to address immediate needs related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

As Chester County entered the green phase of the state’s plan for reopening, the YMCA of Greater Brandywine (YGBW) welcomed back its members and the community on June 29. Facilities will open in phases to ensure the safest experience possible. During the first week, wellness centers and indoor tracks, as well as limited group exercise classes, were offered. On July 6, YGBW was scheduled to reopen Childwatch, as well as indoor lap pools and locker rooms for lap swimmers only. Additional amenities and programming will reopen soon. For a detailed list of amenities and specific guidelines for each, readers may visit www.ymcagbw.org.

YGBW’s highest priority has always been protecting members’ health and safety, but in light of COVID-19, new protocols have been implemented, staff members have been retrained in the latest cleaning and disinfecting procedures and many modifications have been made to the facilities to continue providing members with the safest experience possible. New protocols include health screenings and temperature checks for all staff, members and visitors entering the facilities.

Face masks are required when entering the YMCA and when in common areas of the YMCA. Masks may be removed

Funders Work Together To Provide Aid To Nonprofits Funders are working together to ensure grant information is shared, organization funding is transparent and communitybased grant panels are making decisions to direct funds to high impact organizations. The funders have turned their attention to grant funding that will ensure long-term financial sustainability of partner nonprofits. The Brandywine Health Foundation (BWHF) launched the Healthcare and Economic Relief Fund in March to address the health and economic impacts of the coronavirus pandemic on the greater Coatesville community. Due to many donations, BWHF granted more than $185,000 to 19 nonprofit partner organizations in
its first phase of grants. Funding was used to provide food and personal care items, to fulfill medical needs and to facilitate online learning during the early weeks of the coronavirus pandemic. In phase two of its grant-making efforts, the BWHF’s focus is on recovery. Current funding will support eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations with general operating grants as they rebuild their capacity. BWHF expects to award a total of more than $350,000 in phase one and phase two grantmaking. More information about the BWHF is available at www.brandywinefoundation.org. The Chester County Community Foundation (CCCF) has awarded close to $450,000 in COVID-19
grant funding to more than 90 organizations via CCCF’s Rapid Response Fund and through the generosity of more than 400 donor advised funds. Local grant panels have been meeting weekly via Zoom to review grant applications and award funding. Many individuals, regional foundations and corporate donors have also offered financial support to CCCF’s COVID-19 Rapid Response Fund. To learn more about the CCCF, readers may visit www.chescocf.org. In addition to the nearly $200,000 given in grants to local nonprofits this year, Chester County Fund for Women & Girls (CCFWG) committed $23,000 in Impact Grants toward response
efforts to COVID-19 that are focused on the needs of women and girls such as gender-based violence and economic empowerment. As the long-term impact continues to unfold, CCFWG will utilize the next Blueprint Report to analyze the data measuring the impact of COVID-19 by gender, age and race to uncover targeted and responsive solutions for members of the community. The organization’s website, www.ccwomen andgirls.org, also has resources which specifically address the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on women and girls. The Phoenixville Community Health Foundation (PCHF) board of directors created a COVID-19 Special Grant Fund to assist local nonprofit organizations in providing critical services during the pandemic. All undesignated grant funds were designated to COVID-19 relief. This included mini grant funds. PCHF has awarded a total of more than $150,000 to 14 organizations in its catchment area. PCHF is currently engaged in a funding cycle to provide longer term support to qualifying nonprofits. Readers may visit www.pchf1.org to learn more about the foundation. Through its Chester County COVID-19 Response Fund, the United Way of Chester County (UWCC) raised almost $840,000 and has already awarded rapid response grants totaling nearly
$615,000 to 83 organizations throughout Chester County that provide relief for food insecurity, maintain critical service delivery, prevent homelessness and provide financial stability for the financially insecure. The UWCC launched its Chester County STRONGER Campaign on July 1 which includes additional general operating grants of $264,000, bringing its COVID-19 related support to more than $1 million. The UWCC will also issue a new, more responsive funding model to benefit Chester County. Information about the UWCC is available at www.unitedway chestercounty.org. The United Way of Southern Chester County (UWSCC) raised $118,000 for its COVID-19 Response Fund to deploy to local nonprofits that are addressing COVID-related critical needs among local residents. The UWSCC worked with La Comunidad Hispana (LCH), the American Mushroom Institute and the UWCC to initiate and fund a mobile testing unit for local mushroom farms. For more details about the UWSCC, readers may visit www.united wayscc.org. Members of the public are urged to support nonprofits during this time through financial contributions, donations of supplies and, when public health conditions allow, volunteerism.

Brandywine Health Foundation Receives Grant
Please call our office when yyour arrives later than Wednesday.
(717) 892-6014 Leave your address, paper date and the day the paper was delivered if you get our voice mail. Thank You!
The Brandywine Health Foundation (BHF) recently announced that it is the recipient of a $100,000 grant from the Philadelphia Foundation’s donoradvised funds. This grant is in support of BHF’s 2020-22 strategic plan priority, to lead positive, community-driven change. Funding from the Philadelphia Foundation will help support three activities. First, BHF will continue with its community engagement forum, “Let’s Talk,” where safe spaces are created that support compassionate listening and better understanding of racial inequities. Community Voice will incorporate “Let’s Talk: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” training, which will focus on racial inequalities, personal acknowledgment, historical injustices and healing and reconciliation. The foundation will engage a diversity, equity and inclusion trainer to facilitate, encourage and support community engagement and authentic conversations among its board, staff members and the community at large.
Secondly, grant funds will be used to develop and support a Community Voice Compendium that will capture community stories as told by community residents, in addition to faith and local municipal leaders. A communication consultant will work with the foundation to record and showcase lived experiences and perceptions to increase learning across power and racial dynamics. Thirdly, BHF will build a cadre of community advocates made up of diverse community members and residents, who will work alongside foundation staff members, board members and others to add voice in the decisions to improve living conditions in the greater Coatesville community. Community advocates will understand the power of advocacy, have knowledge of the legislative process and build partnerships to advance policies and systems that improve community health. The Philadelphia Foundation has a century-long history of connecting community-minded individuals with the people and

Virtual Event Connects Grandfather And Grandson For 18 years, the French Creek Iron Tour has given cyclists the chance to explore the northern Chester County countryside. For more than the past decade, Al Gilens of Gladwyne has ridden along. The 87-year-old often rode beside his grandson Josh Gilens, 29, formerly of New Brunswick, N.J., but when Josh moved to Denver for his medical residency, they did not expect to ride the Iron Tour together again anytime soon. This year, due to the pandemic, French & Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust changed the format of the Iron Tour. The “Forge Your Own Adventure” Iron Tour used social media promotion and the hashtag #FCIT2020. Between June 14 and 28, riders could choose from Iron Tour courses ranging from 10 to 100 miles or create their own custom course. Riders participated from all over the country, sharing pictures and experiences. More than 300 riders registered to support the preservation of open space in northern Chester County. “Preserved Forever” signs could be found around the region, marking properties preserved by French & Pickering over its five decades of conservation work. Al and Josh took full advantage of the virtual event, riding

Josh added, “I am so very grateful for this virtual tour. Now that we have the idea, I suspect this will not be our last virtual ride of the season, and the fact that we got to do it while supporting the French & Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust was an added bonus.” Information about participating in the French Creek Iron Tour can be found at www.irontour.org. French & Pickering is considering a fall tour, dependent on pandemic conditions, and looks forward to a June 2021 tour to help fund land preservation projects around the region.

Lincoln University’s cultural heritage and legacy. The grant is part of a broader effort by the university to carry out its 2018 strategic plan, “Reimagining the Legacy: Learn. Liberate. Lead.� The plan called for strategically aligning resources to support institutional priories, including infrastructure projects that support the vision. The National Park Service awarded 44 grants across 17 states to help preserve and highlight stories related to the African American struggle for equality in the 20th century. Lincoln’s project is the only grant awarded in Pennsylvania to receive the funding, which was appropriated by Congress in 2018 through the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF).

Hinsonville’s residents and members of the Amos family helped to build and support the university.

Amos House began in 1870 as a private residence of the Amos family located within the proposed Lincoln University Historic District. The Amos family and other locals helped to build Lincoln University, known as the first degreegranting institution of higher learning for African Americans, which became known for the contributions made by many prominent alumni to the Civil Rights Movement in America.

These students can also pursue a dual master’s degree leading to a counselingspecific accredited degree in clinical mental health counseling. Both tracks are available through evening and weekend intensive classes on the campus of Immaculata University.

Pennsylvania’s Department of Labor and Industry recently announced that its anti-fraud division has discovered fraudulent acts against unemployment compensation benefits. Scammers are using personal information, accessed through sources outside of Labor and Industry, to apply for benefits. If someone has received a payment for unemployment or pandemic unemployment benefits and did not submit a claim, they can report the fraudulent claim and return the paper check payment. If someone received a direct deposit and did not file for unemployment, the funds, made by personal check, cashier’s check, certified check, or money order, should be returned. Information on how to return payments is available at www.uc.pa.gov/Fraud/Pages/default .aspx. To report a fraudulent claim, readers may visit www.uc.pa.gov /Pages/Report-Fraud-Here.aspx.
