Community Work
Free meals for school-aged children!
Pettaway Pursuit Foundation became one of the Nutritional Development Services (NDS) of Philadelphia distribution locations.
PPF has assisted NDS in serving meals to families with school-aged children. Each child gets 3 breakfasts, 3 lunches, and 6 milks. The food is served every Monday and Wednesday from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm or until supplies last.
Pettaway Pursuit Foundation recognized that there are families in need of our help and support, during this time more than ever. Thus, on Monday, May 4th, 2020, PPF decided to open its driveway to allow families in the community to get these free meals amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
Currently, we are serving meals to 175 children each day, with a great group of volunteers all while practicing social distancing and safeguards according to the CDC. If you would like to volunteer, email us info@theppf.org.
Summer Program for Teen Parents!
Pettaway Pursuit Foundation has partnered with the Project ELECT Teen Parent Program managed by the Delaware County Intermediate Unit, (DCIU). The ELECT Program is a program dedicated to supporting teenage parents attending local high schools to remain in school, go on to post-secondary education, while remaining healthy and raising healthy children.
PPF created a 6-week virtual summer program where doulas provide educational workshops to assist these young parents in their birth and postpartum journeys.
In addition, PPF is providing incentives to these teen parents in the form of gift cards to support their efforts to remain in school and for taking part in the additional education through PPF. If you would like to donate a gift card to a teen parent graduating senior, or another student please contact us at 610-553-5483.
