Philly UP

Proud to have had the opportunity to travel with, teach and inspire this incredible group of teens. They taught and inspired us too.

Proud to have completed our first full cohort yesterday with a trip to the Weitzman. Each of the teens formulated a passion project to make a difference in the world. Philly UP worked with a diverse group of over 25 teens (reaching close to 100 in total) in our mission to build empathy and understanding of different races, cultures and religions. Thank you .mogesb for your hard work and guidance. Please help support more teens by visiting our website and making a donation. www.phillyup.org
