The City of Philadelphia in partnership with Bread & Roses Community Fund announce grants of $15,000 to 30 grassroots organizations and community groups.
In late October, the Fund awarded its third round of grants totaling $170,500 to 52 nonprofit organizations and individuals working to increase COVID-19 education, vaccine access, health resources, and outreach activities in Philadelphia, Montgomery, Delaware, and Chester counties.
"Our communities aren’t separate from us; they’re our families, the young people we work with in school every day. If it’s your community, you can’t step away from what’s impacting it."
The groups announced 17 local organizations will receive a total of $192,000 in City funding to conduct grassroots outreach to maximize the number of Philadelphia households claiming the newly expanded federal Child Tax Credit.
