[NEWS] Why You'll Soon See Postcards to Hand to the Homeless in Center City

From PhillyMag

There’s a new campaign to end homelessness in Philly — and it encourages you to take a simple step to help.

The Center City District and Project HOME have partnered to create a new ad campaign aimed at people currently experiencing homelessness. The organizations announced on Tuesday that they’ll deploy electronic and paper poster ads on 70 transit shelters in Center City. Each of the ads will feature a photo and story of one of five formerly homeless Philadelphians – Alfonso, David, Katie, LaToya, and Nasir – who seek to inspire others to find a path out of homelessness. The ads will all have the same theme: “Your Story Doesn’t End Here. I Know Because Mine Didn’t.”
