Did you know that in Philadelphia there are more than 2,000 homeless children and youth in homeless, shelters and living on the streets across the city during the winter months, these children are at risk of spending long periods of times outdoors and dangerously cold temperatures. For the past 15 years.

My office is partnered with the city's office of homeless services to ensure that we have a full and complete list of shelters that serve as children to produce our annual knit end a program that collects handmade, knitted and crocheted hats, gloves scarves and blankets from the very active and generous crafts community right here in Philadelphia, it is important for us to make a difference during the holidays and the cold winter months that lie ahead.
