At Friday's Victory Party, PPT members boogied down because we had an amazing year of organizing. This bus is for all of us! After a long year of successful organizing and after 3 years of virtual gatherings, PPT Members were ready to have a good time at our Victory Party & Year-End Celebration last Friday!
We had a lot to celebrate! We won a major milestone during the fall when it was announced that Allegheny County would launch a Discount Transit Fares Pilot Program - and that 14,000 SNAP-EBT households in Allegheny County would be able to participate. It was such a big win, in fact, that it was awarded "Best Advocacy Campaign of the Year" by TransitCenter! (TransitCenter gave PPT a big red sash as an award, which brought on the party's theme: pageant. So members wore fabulous outfits to celebrate).
The party also brought in new members to the organization and helped to further our Year End Fundraising Campaign - contribute to the campaign by making a donation to PPT today! |
