Dear Leanne,
The Green Economy Task Force has been working for two years to ensure that
Philadelphians living in poverty are not left behind when 21st century job skills pervade
the workplace. We have been intentionally inclusive, encouraging unlikely alliances and
cross-sector cooperation. With over thirty social service and job training organizations
represented, GETF was abuzz this summer as numerous Stakeholders applied for Recovery
Act contracts to bring critical funds to Philadelphia.
Each application was strengthened by the relationships you've worked to cultivate, calling
on one another for curriculum, letters of support, and advice. As challenging as that period
of time was for many of you, those proposals demonstrated to the federal government our
city's profound commitment to serve people in poverty and your willingness to work with
new allies to get the job done.
Last week the U.S. Department of Labor recognized that effort and awarded not
one, but three grants to Philadelphia organizations -- more grants than any other
city in the country.
