MLK Day

We believe that it is very important to give back to our community. Every year we plan to do some work in our community to make it a little better. Sometimes it involves a little bit of design, and sometimes it involves a little bit of work. One year we helped move gym equipment, another year we like painted and built planter. It’s a lot of fun!

PhilaNOMA's dedication to the local community is evident in our programming. Through our annual MLK Day of Service we have worked with local churches and community groups around critical needs in their spaces. In 2012, PhilaNOMA contributed pro bono design towards the development of the Logan Parklet. Our 2013 initiative assisted the Community Design Collaborative for a design grant to the New Africa Center. As the 2014 Legacy Project during the Philadelphia Convention, we partnered with Lighthouse and Temple University for the redesign of a community garden space. For 2015 we partnered with Girl Scouts and US2020 on STEM initiatives in the Philadelphia region. In 2016, we partnered with AIA Philadelphia and AIAS for their Legacy Project hosting students from CHAD, West Philadelphia HS, and the ACE Mentor Program for a day of Mentorship. We are gearing up for more!
