Every year, TUH-Jeanes Campus honors the important work of community not-for-profit organizations during this special event held in the Cheltenham Friends Meetinghouse on the hospital’s campus. This year, the program bestowed 17 local community groups with grants totaling $59,000, provided by the Anna T. Jeanes Foundation.
The event also encourages community networking and idea sharing across organizations to promote collaboration and to strengthen their overall efforts.
The local groups represent a wide demographic range across the TUH-Jeanes Campus service region, but share many commonalities in addressing such issues as poverty, addiction, food insecurity, elder care, education, and homelessness.
