Looking out for the neighborhood

With all the sad news stories that there are to hear about on TV and radio every day, and read about in the papers and online, it’s nice to hear that there are still organizations and businesses, large and small who care about others, who may be struggling. That’s what I call some good news. Some say the holidays often bring out the best in people, but I beg to differ. I know a long list of people, organizations, businesses, corporations, and institutions that give and give and then give some more every chance they get. 

In the Allegheny West area of North Philadelphia, an organization by the same name, the Allegheny West Foundation (AWF), was created with the thought in mind that it would be a beacon of hope and light in the community, for growth and advancement for residents in that area of Philadelphia. The man who’s been leading this nonprofit for some 35 years now has taken the original mission of AWF to a whole new level.
