The Besch Fund:

Earl Besch (1926-2015), a long time resident of Camp Hill Borough, was known for his generosity to others. Earl would regularly reach out to the schools to see if there were families in need. He would offer to buy a bike, a winter coat, pay for camp enrollment or purchase them a Christmas present.

In 2015, his family established a memorial fund in his name to continue his legacy of caring. What started as a memorial fund with The Lion Foundation to honor Earl Besch has grown to a movement that supports several important programs. 

In 2026, The Lion Foundation board voted unanimously to honor the outstanding legacy of Nancy Besch by renaming the fund, simply, "The Besch Fund". Learn more about the incredible life of Nancy Besch through her Wall of Honor biography.
