We do this by providing dynamic, interactive, and transformational programming and services g‍‍‍eared towards breaking the chains of intergenerational poverty in some of the more underserved communities in Philadelphia.

One Community

at a time. 

‍‍‍Strawberry Mansion/Sharswood

Highest incidence of youth shooting victims in Philadelphia

 (14% of all child shootings in the City) 

Highest rates of child abuse and neglect in Philadelphia

(2.5x higher than average) 

Kensington

Highest cluster of people in poverty in the City of Philadelphia. 

(60% poverty rate)

(40% Graduation Rate from High School)

Abuse, Crime, Hunger, Neglect, and Poverty should not be the norm for our most vulnerable population. 

In an effort to improve the quality of life in the communities we serve, Inspi‍‍‍re Philadelphia’s programs and activities will be based around these three core areas of focus:

Fitness and Health Awareness/Engagement

Community Education Enrichment

A very special thanks to our community partners!
