In June 2021, Philly Love put out the call to Philadelphia and the response was overwheling and beautiful... Over 30 amazing humans were honored and recognized by their communities for their love, hard work, and dedication. The resounding statements of "thank you for seeing me" were heard over and over again.
Your community sees you.
Your community loves you.
Your community honors you.
Continuing to recognize these wonderful people, we will be highlighting one of the thirty-six Philly Love Award Winners each week. - xo
