Dear Owners/Property Managers,
While we always appreciate your relationship to us, we are especially thinking of you now, as PhillySEEDS, the non-profit affiliate of the Philadelphia Housing Authority (“PHA”), gears up for our upcoming event, the “Who Knew? To-Do!” on Thursday, June 13, 2019, at 6 p.m., at PHA’s brand new headquarters at 2013 Ridge Avenue, in the Sharswood neighborhood.
As Chair of PhillySEEDS, I am writing to invite you to become a sponsor for this event and share in our convivial and entertaining evening of food and drink, fun and surprises. We will be highlighting the accomplishments and leadership of PHA and PhillySEEDS in working with the community to revitalize and transform this neighborhood to be one of choice for PHA residents and all who live here and we will explore the ways in which PhillySEEDS continues to seek and provide life-changing opportunities for PHA residents in ways that PHA cannot.
But, PhillySEEDS cannot do this without you! We are enclosing sponsorship materials and hope you will become a sponsor for this event. Your support is critical to our endeavors and our ability to create change.
As detailed in the enclosed PhillySEEDS 2019 Annual Update, we continue with the successes of our three core programs for PHA-assisted residents: scholarships, home ownership assistance, and security deposit assistance. We are also committed to serving the community at large, by providing transformative economic and educational opportunities, including: working with the Big Picture School, in PHA’s Vaux Community Building, to offer innovative quality education to community residents (with PhillySEEDS providing a $500 subsidy to each student, regardless of whether they are PHA residents); partnering with Temple University to offer community health care; and creating additional training and educational programs in PHA’s Vaux Community Building for residents, PHA job applicants, vendors, and Section 3 businesses.
If you are interested of just attending the event and purchase a ticket, you can visit www.phillyseeds.org and purchase online OR go to our eventbrite link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2019-phillyseeds-event-the-who-knew-to-do-tickets-59246352435
We look forward to your support, as we work to provide tangible, impactful opportunities for PHA residents and the City of Philadelphia, to end generational cycles of poverty and lift up lives and spirits, by uniting community, initiative and opportunity.
Thank you.
