Lebanon Freshman, Mother Honored by Gov. Shapirofor Volunteer Work"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes in life you don\u2019t get what you want. You get more than you could have bargained for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That was exactly the case for Mt. Lebanon High School freshman Allegra Synowiec when she and members of her volunteer charity organization, the Pittsburgh Linxx, spent a surprise day in Harrisburg at Gov. Josh Shapiro\u2019s mansion as guests of honor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Synowiec, 15, and her peers in the Linxx are part of the local chapter of the National Charity League (NCL), a national philanthropic organization that pairs mothers and daughters in active efforts to promote human welfare. Synowiec was one of 14 girls from the Linxx chapter invited to Shapiro\u2019s residence on Dec. 15 because of their high volunteer hour totals with the NCL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe got to speak personally to the governor and to his wife,\u201d Synowiec said. \u201cAnd then it was really moving to hear his speech. It was so nice because we got to hear that he started out thinking he was going to be a doctor, and then a basketball player, but then he shifted over to his current field. It was a lesson that we can figure things out as we learn about ourselves, in a way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Linxx chapter is made up of mother-and-daughter teams who contribute hundreds of hours to dozens of local nonprofits, including the Mario Lemieux Foundation, Meals on Wheels, the Alzheimer\u2019s Association and the American Red Cross, supporting causes ranging from food insecurity and homelessness to senior care and children\u2019s health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Allegra, who volunteers with her mother, Andrea Synowiec, has been part of the Linxx since seventh grade. She was part of the inaugural class of the Linxx and plans to remain a member through the end of her high school years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Serving as a volunteer has opened Allegra\u2019s eyes to local problems such as homelessness, food insecurity and caring for those with disabilities. She cited working with disabled trick-or-treaters as a particularly rewarding experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Linxx\u2019s recognition by the governor and first lady came as a surprise because it replaced the suspended Presidential Volunteer Service Award (PVSA) program, a national recognition program that honors U.S. citizens who complete significant volunteer work through qualifying organizations. The PVSA program was paused due to federal funding cuts, so volunteers who achieved the required service hours would not be recognized with a medal or certificate this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is when Shapiro and first lady Lori Shapiro stepped in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur local group reached out to let the governor know that these girls were going to be recognized by the president and were now not going to have any support or recognition,\u201d Andrea said. \u201cThen the governor just went above and beyond. He invited every girl who would have qualified for a Presidential Volunteer Service Award to personally come to his mansion and meet with all of them. He also handed them each individually medals with their names and the number of hours they had volunteered inscribed. He then gave them a personalized letter, and they got to talk with the governor, the first lady and Secretary of Health Dr. Deborah Bogan. So, they had this cool opportunity to meet all these high-level people and to be thanked for the work they\u2019re doing in Pennsylvania.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Working alongside each other while volunteering has provided the Synowiec women with another benefit: It has strengthened their bond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI feel like my relationship with my mom has grown a lot closer doing this,\u201d Allegra said. \u201cAnd since we drive to and from each volunteering event, we talk a lot on the way and then we\u2019re volunteering together. Every time we just get closer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To learn more about the Pittsburgh Linxx, visit www.nationalcharityleague.org\/chapter\/pittsburghlinxx&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lebobeat.com\/staging\/1488\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/img_3501.webp?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Andrea and Allegra Synowiec talking with Gov.
