Visions of Eagles Celebrates Another Year of Caregiving

Visions of Eagles held its 2nd annual celebratory breakfast Friday morning and heard from five Nazareth area residents who received help from the homegrown, non-profit.

The facts warranted applause: But it wasn’t those facts -- those numbers -- that drew the most impact during the homegrown, not-for-profit organization’s celebratory breakfast Friday morning at the Hampton Inn in Lower Nazareth Township. No, the biggest impact came when five Nazareth area residents stood in front of the microphone and told their stories, speaking of the impact Visions of Eagles has had on their lives. The 501(c)3 organization, which was founded in 2008, provides temporary assistance to individuals and families living in the Nazareth area, including the borough, Stockertown and Tatamy and the townships of Lower Nazareth, Upper Nazareth and Bushkill.

'Visions of Eagles' Helps Bridge the Gap Between Despair and Hope

The homegrown, not-for-profit corporation, established in October 2008, has assisted 50 Nazareth area individuals and families so far.

It helps with the simple fixes: a new set of tires, a new house window that blew out or pellets for a stove. But it also helps with the big fixes: furnishing an apartment while a Lower Nazareth Township family rebuilds its fire-ravaged home and paying to bring a doctor from Philadelphia to Lower Nazareth to help an autistic boy learn how to eat. The small and big fixes are all bandaged by a local foundation, Visions of Eagles. The homegrown, not-for-profit corporation was established in October 2008 and operates as a public charity, according to Tom Fehnel, president of its board of directors. The 501(c)3 provides temporary assistance to individuals and families living in the Nazareth area including the borough, Stockertown and Tatamy and …
