CommUnity Zone

Welcome to the Zone!

The idea behind the CommUnity Zone is right in our name: the emphasis of UNITY in our COMMUNITY. We work to connect the people of the Central Susquehanna Valley with health and human services and programs focused on society, the arts, and culture, in order to build strong, diverse, and thriving bonds. Our vision is a community where all individuals, organizations, ad businesses share ideas, talents, and resources to create and maintain a connected, caring, healthy, and vibrant Valley.

We've been operating for over a decade from the heart of Lewisburg, spreading our message of togetherness and celebration throughout the Susquehanna Valley region. Every year, we hope to make our programs bigger, better, and more far-reaching than they've ever been before, and we can accomplish that with your help! We're a small nonprofit - just one part-time employee assisting our director- so every donation counts, and it's generous gifts that make our work possible!

Your gift during Raise the Region 2025 helps us...

1. Maintain our space in the heart of downtown Lewisburg to continue providing high-quality programming such as the Listening Room concert series, Technology Tutoring, meeting space for our partners, and so much more. 

2. Launch our new program, "Music & Art for a Purpose," in which local artists and educators will facilitate theater, music, fine art, and writing workshops at NO COST to community members. This program aims to advance our mission of social justice and inclusion through one of the most uniting mediums we know: the arts! 

3. Contribute to community efforts such as the Juneteenth Celebration, theatre productions like "My Soul Looked Back and Wondered," and sponsor movies and guest speakers relevant to our mission. 

4. Act as an incubator for clubs, new nonprofits, and individuals with great ideas to broaden their networks, develop their organizations, and have support as they make our community stronger.
