BRIAN'S BLESSINGS WOMEN HELPING OTHERS THE GIFT OF THE MAGI
We are delighted to help homeowners in need in special ways during the holidays. Eagles' Brian Westbrook, through his charity Brian's Blessings, joined RTP in giving away all the fixin's for a Thanksgiving dinner to 50 families. He said, “I want to show them the love I have for them whether I'm on the field or not.” Local news captured Brian's kindness. Partnering with RTP again, Brian will give toys to children in Southwest Philadelphia for Christmas. RTP is the first-time recipient of a $20,000 grant from Women Helping Others, a Dallas-based foundation that mobilizes the generosity of women to empower other women, children, and families. The WHO Foundation epitomizes the belief that a dollar can make a difference – very simpatico with RTP! Many thanks for the generosity of all who have shared their good fortune with others. Watch a special tribute to the women of Rebuilding Together Philadelphia. In O. Henry's story Della cuts her long beautiful hair to buy a chain for her husband's watch. Jim sells his watch to buy tortoiseshell combs for Della's hair. It's a timeless tale of sacrifice, love and value. You too can be magi. Making a gift to RTP, especially during these challenging economic times, will bring joy to families, leverage the volunteers' energies to make essential home repairs, and have a lasting impact. Thank you!
