Through the vision of the Sisters of Holy Redeemer, Drueding Center opened 30 years ago, making it the first transitional housing program for homeless women and children in Philadelphia. Since 1987, we have helped over 3,000 families with over 6,000 children. For our 30th anniversary celebration, we are holding a block party on Saturday, September 16th from 11am-3pm at 413 W. Master Street. We are looking for volunteers to help set up, serve food, and clean up. We are also looking for a photographer to capture the milestone! Whether you have a group or want to volunteer individually, we would love for you to join our celebration!
Please contact Hillary Davala, Volunteer Coordinator for more information at hdavala@holyredeemer.com
