On October 16th, Penn PERI partnered with cinéSPEAK to host a film screening of Daughters, a moving feature documentary about four young girls preparing for a Daddy/Daughter Dance with their incarcerated fathers through a fatherhood program in a Washington, D.C. jail.

“Civic House in conjunction with Freedom Side School hosted a screening of the highly emotional documentary,” explains Rell, the Community Engagement Coordinator at CH. “It was a beautiful turnout and not a dry eye in the building.”

On Saturday, December 14th, we were honored to support Moder Patshala’s Annual Volunteer Appreciation Celebration here on Penn’s campus. This event celebrates the incredible contributions of tutors, students, families, and community members who make their work possible, supporting Bangladeshi-American families in West Philadelphia. The event kicked off with a drawing contest for students, followed by certificates for volunteers and words of gratitude from community members!
