Our Mission
For ten transformative years, Philadelphia Legacies (PL) has been honoring the heartbeat of our city - its extraordinary people and their enduring impact.
Our mission:
- Illuminate Changemakers: We commission beautiful portraits by local artists to immortalize Philadelphians who've shaped our city's soul.
- Amplify Community Heroes: We recognize and celebrate those working tirelessly on the frontlines of positive change.
- Connect Past and Present: Our historic tours breathe life into the neighborhoods that nurtured our city's changemakers.
- Empower Vital Nonprofits: We raise crucial funds for Philadelphia organizations making a daily difference.
- Foster Future Leaders: Through networking events, we cultivate a new generation of visionaries, facilitating the exchange of wisdom and resources.
Philadelphia Legacies is more than an awards ceremony - it's a living, growing testament to the power of community. Join us in weaving the rich tapestry of Philadelphia's past, present, and future.
