The Promise

PCDC joins the No One Left Behind (NoLB) Coalition with ACANA and Southwest CDC for The Promise PHL

October 2021 — PCDC’s collaboration with United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey and #ThePromisePHL is allowing us to help our constituents and community members like never before! 

 

We’ve partnered with the Africa Cultural Alliance of North America (ACANA) as member of their No One Left Behind (NoLB) Coalition which will leverage resources from ACANA, PCDC, and Southwest CDC to reach the maximum impact for low-income, immigrant communities across the city.

 

The poverty rate for Asian Philadelphians is 23.1% vs. 12.7% for White Philadelphians (2019, The Pew Charitable Trusts), that’s why our work with The Promise is essential to the Philadelphia’s Chinese immigrant community

 

As a proud coalition member, PCDC looks forward to delivering bilingual services to ensure our community has equitable access to public benefits, tax prep, financial and housing counseling, rental assistance, and basic needs.

 

“We treat this (#ThePromisePHL) partnership like a franchise where the client has multiple locations where they can go…No matter which of our doors you walk into you will be able to access the same services.” – John Chin, Executive Director
