Today, Amazon announced the recipients of the Amazon Bucks County Community Fund, a community grant program supporting local initiatives in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. A total of $100,000 has been awarded to 22 local community groups, schools, non-profit organizations, and individuals whose projects are driving positive change across the region.
“At Amazon, we believe in building stronger communities by supporting meaningful, long-term initiatives that create opportunities and drive positive change,” said Lisa Schooley, Community Engagement Manager at Amazon. “We’re excited to see these changemakers put their ideas into action and make a lasting impact across Bucks County.”
The Amazon Bucks County Community Fund, which launched in February 2026, invited applications from Bucks County residents and organizations pursuing projects across themes including culture & heritage, digital skills, education & access, health & wellbeing, sustainability & environment, STEM, and hunger.
