In four Years, we will be marking the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. PHILADELPHIA250 is the nonprofit designated by The City of Philadelphia to coordinate a people-powered, citywide, 250th commemoration in Philadelphia. I speak to Executive Director Danielle DiLeo Kim about how far Philadelphia and the country have come toward creating freedom and equality for all. It is also a time to recognize the injustices and challenges Philadelphians face every day and work together to create a stronger and more equitable city for all. A cornerstone program to Philadelphia 250'scommemoration is their public call, “Leave a Legacy” that asks Philadelphians to submit ideas or projects they’re currently working on that aspire to strengthen our City’s neighborhoods.
They encourage all who are interested in learning more about the Leave a Legacy public call to visit our www.philadelphia250.us/leave-a-legacy
