Is it safe for students to go serve in Philly? The Philadelphia Project is a ministry of Roxborough Presbyterian Church located in Germantown (actually Northwest of “urban” Philly.) They’ve hosted youth groups to help them restore their community for over a decade. They have a very organized program overseen by dedicated staff and volunteers. We had a great experience there last year and are looking forward to another awesome weekend! Please visit their site to check it all out for yourself. ThePhiladelphiaProject.org
