Volunteer Oyinda Alliyu installs flooring in the home of Linda Smith and Jane Stevens during an event where volunteers from the nonprofit Rebuilding Together Philadelphia work on houses in West Philadelphia.
Happy Wednesday. Our streak of sun ends today, with showers expected in the afternoon and temps in the high 60s. P.S. After I noted yesterday that Tuesday was the second of two Hatfield Phillies Franks BOGO Nights at Citizens Bank Park, a reader pointed out that the PhilliesRebuilding Together Philadelphia partners with grassroots orgs to identify homeowners who could benefit from improvement efforts, working on multiple homes on a block at a time, primarily in West and North Philadelphia. Renovations range from new flooring, roofs, and windows to electrical upgrades and handrail installation.
