Angela
York
Angela York has been the Executive Director of THRIVE Peninsula since 2016, leading the organization through remarkable growth. Under her visionary leadership, THRIVE has expanded its programs by 500%, significantly increasing its capacity to provide emergency financial assistance, financial coaching, and food pantry services. In 2023, Angela oversaw the acquisition and renovation of a new facility, more than double the size of its previous location, marking a transformative milestone for the organization.
The new building houses The Market at THRIVE, the region’s first free grocery store, created in partnership with Food Lion, which emphasizes providing fresh, healthy foods to the community. The Market is projected to serve 25,000 people in its first year alone. The new facility also features a raised
bed garden that supplies fresh produce to The Market, a free children’s bookstore in the lobby, and a 50-seat conference room for hosting workshops and educational programs. The financial services wing provides crucial aid and helps families achieve greater financial literacy, supporting long-term stability.
The grand opening of the new building drew over 300 community members and garnered extensive media coverage, cementing THRIVE’s role as a vital resource in the region.
Angela’s passion for non-profit work was sparked during a seven-week mission trip to Cairo, Egypt, where she taught English to Sudanese refugees, an experience that ignited her dedication to creating positive change through service. She holds a Master’s in Community Leadership from Alvernia University and a Bachelor’s in Public Relations from York College. At Alvernia, she served as a graduate assistant in the Student Activities office, further shaping her leadership skills.
Outside of her impactful work at THRIVE, Angela enjoys spending time with her family, cheering on the Philadelphia Eagles, and participating in her book club. She resides in Chesapeake, Virginia, with her husband and their 5-year-old son.
Four Under Forty Honorees
Mary Strausser
As a student in Alvernia’s occupational therapy program, Mary Strausser MSOT ’08 did not anticipate a career centered around children; she would be happy working with adults. However, that changed when Mary, with two business partners, started two franchises of Gym-Jam Therapeutics, Inc., a learning center serving children with autism and other special needs. The facilities offer services, including applied behavioral analysis (ABA), speech therapy, occupational therapy, social skills groups, and parent training.
The centers, which accept insurance and medical assistance, are in Pottsville, the home of Alvernia’s recently opened Pottsville CollegeTowne, and Frackville, both in Schuylkill County. They serve children and families from a wide geographical area.
Strausser’s change of heart regarding her career path began nearly a decade ago when she had the first of her four children, a son who suffered from medical difficulties and experienced some developmental challenges. Locating services for him was difficult, as resources near her home were sparse then. When she eventually succeeded, she was delighted with the benefits her son experienced from the therapies he received. When the opportunity to open a facility that could help other children arose, Strausser enlisted two colleagues and jumped at the chance.
The Gym-Jam staff works with area school districts and Schuylkill County’s early intervention program to identify students needing services. The therapies provided vary depending on need, as does the length of time a child remains in the program. Gym-Jam also partners with Pottsville CollegeTowne psychology students, who assist at the centers. She looks forward to additional opportunities to partner with Alvernia, to expand Gym-Jam into Berks County.
Four Under Forty Honorees

He is also an alumnus of Alvernia University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology as an ROTC Scholarship recipient.
While pursuing his undergraduate degree, Leon demonstrated his commitment to leadership and service by balancing the rigorous Army ROTC program with his academic responsibilities at Lehigh University. He participated in daily physical training, leadership labs, and field training exercises. He spent summers at officer leadership training sites such as Fort Knox, KY, and Fort Lewis, WA, gaining expertise in military tactics, leadership development, ethics, and organizational engagement.
In addition to his leadership degree, Major Geiger holds a Master’s degree in Business and Organizational Security Management from Webster University, which he completed while stationed at Fort Leonard Wood, MO.

Joanne Haag ‘69
Joanne Haag exemplifies the power of adaptability and seizing unexpected opportunities. A 1969 graduate of Alvernia University, Joanne began her career as an elementary school teacher in Washington, D.C., where she creatively wove her passion for stamp collecting into her classroom lessons. However, a move to Cincinnati and a chance encounter at a local stamp club luncheon would dramatically alter her career trajectory.
Joanne was unexpectedly offered a position at H.P. Thompson, an engineering firm—an unfamiliar field. Undeterred, she embraced the challenge, learning the industry’s complexities with determination and quickly rising through the ranks. Her tenacity and business savvy led her to become a part-owner in the firm, breaking barriers in a male-dominated sector.
Her entrepreneurial spirit didn’t end there. Joanne’s passion for stamp collecting, which began in her teaching days, evolved into a successful side business. This venture allowed her to pursue her hobby and took her around the globe, blending her love for travel with her entrepreneurial pursuits. Whether navigating the complexities of industrial equipment or building a thriving stamp-dealing business, Joanne’s career is a testament to her ability to turn unexpected opportunities into successful enterprises.
Joanne remains actively involved in her professional community through her National Association of Professional Women, T.E.C., and the Clermont Chamber of Commerce memberships.
Over 42 years, Joanne played a pivotal role in expanding H.P. Thompson’s product line, which includes boilers, burners, combustion control, pollution control, airflow measurement, and other essential boiler house equipment.
Reflecting on more than five decades since her graduation from Alvernia, Joanne credits the university’s core values and supportive community for instilling in her the resilience, confidence, and boldness that have been the cornerstones of her success in business and life.
