KACS is Making History – AGAIN!

Kennett Area Community Service (KACS), elected Ana Amarante-Craig, Esquire, President of the 70-year-old organization. This is significant because this marks the first Hispanic/Latino person to lead the organization.

Ana is a Partner and Trial Attorney at the law firm of HGSK, P.C. In Chester County, she has served as a longstanding volunteer of LCH Health and Community Services and is part of their Mission Advancement Committee. She also volunteers in the counties of Philadelphia and Berks. In 2023, she was selected by Governor Shapiro to represent Chester County for a two-year term as part of the Governor’s Advisory Commission on Latino Affairs. Within that Commission, she co-chairs the Leadership Development Committee. Most recently, she was selected as the 2024 Chester County Bar Association Community Service Award Recipient. She is a graduate of Georgetown University and earned her Juris Doctor degree from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. She is a long-term resident of Chester County, where she loves to spend time with her family.

I look forward to working with our volunteers, community partners, and fellow board members in furthering KACS’ mission towards ending food and housing insecurity in Southern Chester County.  I am honored to lead KACS at this historic time when we are blazing a trail to construct a new building which will serve as an anchor institution for social services in Southern Chester County for many years to come. 

The KACS Board and staff are elated to have her leadership and heart in this important role.
