In keeping with Lancaster General’s commitment to the community, we invite you to review the financial summary of our Community Benefit support. It is an honor to be trusted with this valuable community resource as your partner in health. Because a healthy community extends beyond healthcare, we support Lancaster schools and community improvement initiatives in addition to helping those who are medically underserved. Just another way that Lancaster General remains by your side.
