Central Mountain High School Senior’s Graduation Project Supports Local Non-Profit

When Katie Gebhardt, a senior at Central Mountain High School, began planning her Senior Project, she knew she wanted it to reflect her values and make a meaningful contribution. What resulted was a months-long campaign that brought both funds and awareness to Pregnancy Resource Clinic, a local organization dedicated to providing community-funded services related to pregnancy, parenting, and sexual health.

Driven by her passion for service and community, Katie spearheaded a dynamic fundraising campaign that also collaborated with Lock Haven Catholic School’s change drive to support PRC.

“Working on the PRC fundraising was an opportunity for me to give back to our community. I was excited to raise funds through conducting a letter writing campaign, hosting a change for change initiative with LHCS, and securing a matching donor. Volunteering and giving back leaves a positive impact on everyone involved,” said Katie.

Altogether, both initiatives raised over $6,700, allowing PRC to purchase two new durable picnic tables for the organization’s backyard.

“The tables create a welcoming space for our clients, staff, volunteers, and families. Katie’s dedication, thoughtfulness, and follow-through were exceptional and her impact will be felt far beyond this school year,” said Site Director, Jen Redmon.

Pregnancy Resource Clinic is grateful for these fundraising efforts and welcomes future seniors who are seeking meaningful and impactful senior project opportunities. For those interested in developing their roles in community service, leadership, and hands-on experience with community-focused work, partnering with Pregnancy Resource Clinic is a rewarding way to make a difference.
