Rep. Ed Neilson October 22, 2024 | 2:44 PM
Today, state Rep. Ed Neilson announced that $1,450,645 was awarded to three organizations in his legislative district which furthers his commitment to investing in Northeast Philadelphia’s future.
The following organizations were awarded funding:
“Investing in the security and environmental sustainability of these organizations will have significant and long-term benefits for Northeast Philadelphia,” Neilson said. “They help empower our community by providing training, and workforce development and keep the Northeast connected via aviation outside of the rush of Philadelphia International Airport. I’m happy to put in the work for these investments and prepare Northeast Philadelphia for a future of success and opportunity.”
Neilson thanked state Sen. Jimmy Dillion for his support in obtaining this funding.
“These projects represent meaningful investments in our community,” said Dillon. “We’ll keep working to secure more support for the people and organizations that make Northeast Philadelphia thrive."
The Statewide Local Share Account funding comes from the PA Racehorse Development and Gaming Act, which provides for the distribution of gaming revenues through the Commonwealth Financing Authority to support projects in the public interest within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
