Hope Partnership Hosts 'Excellence of Hope' Friendraiser Oct 30

The Hope Partnership for Education, an independent middle school and education center in North Philadelphia, is hosting its annual "The Excellence of Hope" Friendraiser on Thursday, October 30th at 6:00 pm in the Ballroom at the Ben located at 832 Chestnut Street. This celebratory event serves as both a recognition ceremony for the organization's inspiring achievements and a crucial fundraising opportunity to sustain its mission of providing high-quality, values-based education that transforms lives in Philadelphia. The evening promises to be a heartfelt gathering of community supporters, featuring live music, dinner, and a silent auction while honoring those who embody the school's core values.

This year's event will specifically honor Mrs. Marjie Quint and Mrs. Nancy Tabas, two dedicated champions who have served as trustees, committee members, and art enrichment teachers at Hope Partnership School for many years. According to Mr. Virgil Sheppard, President & CEO of Hope Partnership for Education, the Friendraiser creates "a beautiful gathering of individuals who embody our core values" and provides space to recognize honorees who steward the founding principle that all Philadelphians deserve a quality educational experience. The unwavering commitment of these honorees has significantly contributed to providing transformational education to youth in the Fairhill neighborhood, making them exemplary representatives of the organization's mission.

For those unable to attend the Friendraiser event, Hope Partnership for Education provides multiple support options through their event website, including purchasing tickets, making monetary donations, contributing to scholarships, and exploring event sponsorship opportunities. The organization emphasizes that every form of support helps continue their work nurturing compassionate citizens and courageous leaders through transformative educational experiences. Additional information about sponsorship and other ways to contribute to this vital educational mission in North Philadelphia remains available for community members interested in supporting this important cause that serves students from adolescence to adulthood.
