The First Community Foundation Partnership of Pennsylvania (FCFP) is accepting applications through the Ralph and Josephine Smith Fund from nonprofits that serve Upper Northumberland County.

Preference is given to the following organizations as outlined in Ms. Smith's will: Evangelical Community Hospital, Geisinger Health Foundation for home health care programs, the Montgomery House Library, and the Turbotville Community Hall Corporation. Additionally, any nonprofit serving the Warrior Run School District is permitted to apply.
