$7.4 Million for 8 Philly Projects
I’m pleased to announce that I secured $7.4 million for eight community projects in the 3rd Congressional District in a recently passed federal funding package. Bringing federal funding home for Philadelphians has always been one of my priorities in Congress, and I’ll keep pursuing more funding for our communities.
The federal funding is designated for these projects:
- Ana Blakiston Day School – schoolyard improvements and equipment upgrades – $717,593
