MATAMORAS, PA — Triversity will hold its “Share Your Heart” dance on Saturday, February 17, at the Best Western, featuring dance music by DJ Brad Keller of Keller Sound Entertainment.

The first “Share Your Heart” was founded after TriVersity and our community at large lost a very special person, Linda Troise, on December 31, 2011. She was an inspiration to anyone who she came in contact with her. Patty Tomaszewski, founder and past executive director/president of TriVersity (formerly known as the UDGLBT Center) wanted the center to do something to honor Linda, so she created “Share Your Heart” and asked the community to bring canned goods to the event to be donated to the food pantry in honor of Linda. This year Triversity will ask the community to donate again, and will also collect items for the Delaware Valley schools. The school has a new program called “Brown Bag Project.” Its objective is to bridge the gaps of food insecure students and to provide food and/or snacks to any student who is in need regardless of income. Helpful items would be tuna and cracker packs, bottles of water, beef/turkey jerky, peanut butter single-serve packets and the like.
