The Ivins House Referral Center

Welcome

The Ivins House Resource and Referral Center has been providing resource and referral services to disadvantaged families, older adults, and people with illness or disabilities in the Morrisville, PA and surrounding Bucks County communities since 2003. Last year we served nearly 2,000 individuals and families through our programs and services. All of our programs are free to those we serve, and are supported 100% by donations from individuals, businesses, corporations and foundation. With your support, we are able to meet more needs. We encourage you to give serious consideration to donating to this much needed community assistance program.

Please Note:
