Fodera & Long, P.C. will be having a ceremony at our offices at 1500 Walnut Street – Suite 900 – Philadelphia, PA 19102 on Tuesday, February 5, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. At that time, we will present Amy Burns, Vice President of Development & Public Relations of Project H.O.M.E., with a check in the amount of $31,755.61.
Since 1989, Project H.O.M.E. has worked to empower adults, children, and families to break the cycle of homelessness and poverty, to alleviate the underlying causes of poverty, and to enable all of us to attain our fullest potential as individuals and as members of a broader society.
In North Central Philadelphia, Project H.O.M.E. continues to work to prevent homelessness in a low-income neighborhood through a variety of initiatives that include greening vacant lots, economic development, home ownership for the working poor, a free medical clinic, and the Honickman Learning Center and Comcast Technolgy Labs which is a state-of-the-art center that offers comprehensive educational and occupational programming, including an independent K-5 school.
At Fodera & Long, P.C. we accept our responsibility to the community. We constantly strive to make Philadelphia and the Delaware Valley a better place for all. The funds that are being donated are residual funds as a result of a successful class action lawsuit. Fodera & Long requested the Court allow them to utilize these residual funds to benefit Project H.O.M.E.. The Court agreed with Fodera & Long’s request and the residual funds will be presented to Project H.O.M.E. at the ceremony on February 5th.
