Our In This Together NEPA team had an an amazing time at Celebrate Berwick on Saturday! It was great chatting with folks as they told us what they love about their community, took the 2026 voter pledge, and spun the wheel to win fun prizes! We 💛 our NEPA communities!

🌏 It’s Sustainability Saturday and we’re sharing tips to make life sustainable, one small step at a time. Pay attention to the labels on your sunscreen! Make the simple switch to reef friendly sunscreens – they contain zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. They’re safe for you and our coral reefs!
