From CBS News Philadelphia:
Rock star Jon Bon Jovi helped celebrate the opening of the new Inn of Amazing Mercy in Kensington Thursday, which offers supportive housing for people fighting homelessness and substance-use disorder.
The sounds of cheers and celebration rang out in Kensington. Project HOME cut the ribbon on the new 62-unit affordable housing site, where people can get help finding a home and sobriety under one roof.
New Jersey's own Jon Bon Jovi was there after he and his wife donated $300,000 to the project. He helped raise another million for the development
"What I see at The Inn of Amazing Mercy is hope," Bon Jovi said. "I see a community that is committed to ending and preventing chronic homelessness and finding real solutions to the crisis that has gripped this country."
