Montco Happening Features FPS Founder and CEO!
We asked locals to nominate Montgomery County’s most influential people – men and women who are shaping the community, influencing their industries, and making a difference. Dozens of amazing stories were submitted about passionate and committed locals. At Montco Happening, we salute all those who wake up every morning with the intention of leaving the world just a little bit better.
10 outstanding individuals have been named the Top 10 Movers & Shakers of the year, and we have the honor of sharing their stories on Montco Happening. Meet Marci Schankweiler of North Wales, the founder of For Pete’s Sake Cancer Respite Foundation, a nonprofit organization that would provide respite opportunities to young adult cancer patients and their families to spend time away to refresh, reconnect and recognize that love is greater than cancer.
