Community Service Organizations in Pennsylvania?

March 52010

Just wondering-been searching for some kind of community outreach program. I’m a single mom soon to be going through a divorce & got stuck with the house. The roof needs LOTS of work done– it’s literally pouring in –like a 5 gal bucket every 3 hours. We’re having a horrible rain storm.
Anybody aware of any programs that are willing to help? Seems like everybody I have called, you have to be a senior-60 or older. Thanks in advance for any input!
I have contacted Habitat for Humanity & got a voice mail on 3 occasions. Still waiting on a repsponse. As for United Way, I’ve been told over & over you have to be a senior, but I will be checking the VFW’s & such as I never thought about them.

I know there’s got to be somebody somewhere, it’s just finding them.

There are various programs out there for low income families. Check with your local United Way and they can probably direct you to someone who can help.
Good luck.

Is Margaret Mead correct about community organizations?

January 272010

Margaret Mead’s statement: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

True, but that isn’t about community organizations, per se. It’s about those willing to stand up and take action.

Here’s another way to look at that quote: government is not the answer. So why do we keep trying to grow government programs? Anyone?

can community based organizations revitalize and rebuild communities?

January 202010


Yes they can, but you have to also understand once they pump all this money into these projects, the same people move right back into them and tear the stuff up all over again. Which is very sad but it happens all the time. The community is trying to better itself but the people in those communities at times don’t want to better themselves.
