We will provide a livestream of the program, so every supporter, including folks outside Philadelphia, can be part of our celebration. Please register for a “livestream ticket” if you plan to join us virtually, and consider making a donation to Philly Thrive.

DETAILS

This event is about collective joy in the name of justice, so if it’s joyful for you to dress up we support that, but casual clothes are fine too!

At the celebration (like most Thrive events), we will honor our ancestors to whom this victory also belongs, including but not limited to Ms Carol Hemignway, Ms Irene Russell, Ms Leslie Brinson, and Mr Alfred “Twin” Johnson

Stay tuned for speaker announcements, including elected officials, media, organizers, and more.
