A Week Away
The
A Week Away Foundation is a 501(c)3 non profit organization based out of
Lancaster County whose mission is to fund and coordinate respites for
individuals who are battling a life threatening illness. AWA’s goal is to
provide a time of relaxation, enjoyment and hope to those whose lives are
filled with stress and uncertainty due to their illness. The organization
is run entirely by volunteers, ensuring that all funds raised directly support
the mission and families served. Applicants are able to select
destination categories such as beach, rustic/outdoor, urban or traveling to
AWA’s hometown of Lancaster County. No flights are provided and the
requested destination must be within a comfortable driving range of the
applicant’s medical care team. Since 2014, AWA has assisted nearly 100
individuals and their families, including an attendee of Christ United
Methodist Church.
