Mission Statement

Friends of Easton, PA is a non-profit community association whose mission is to provide strategic support to local organizations that foster a vibrant, safe, clean, walkable environment for the residents of and visitors to the City of Easton, PA.

Who We Are

We are a group of passionate citizens who appreciate Easton’s progress and believe strongly in its future. 

 

We are Easton entrepreneurs, customers, residents and community activists. 

 

We embody key generational perspectives – Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y – and represent the city’s demographic diversity in other important ways.

 

We bring together considerable talent and expertise in finance, business, design, marketing, education, health care & the arts.​

OUR IMPACT

Thanks to the donations of our Easton neighbors, we were able to raise $28,000 to permanently light 25 trees in Centre Square  on November 30, 2019. 

​

With your continued support, this is just the beginning of our efforts to bring unique lighting solutions to Easton.
