Holiday Giving! <\/a><\/h3>\n

Giving Thanks! Each year, at this time, the Board of EPX through the generosity of our membership and area businesses, works to complete our annual charitable giving campaign!\u00c2\u00a0 EPX is a 501(c)(3) and as such is expected to donate 5% of it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s income to charity. However, if you are a member, be proud knowing EPX donates at least that much, if not more, of it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s annual budget to charity! Much of our fund-raising goes to support this campaign.<\/p>\n

EPX donations started with a gift to St. John\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Baptist Church at 13th & Tasker Streets for their food pantry. The Philadelphia Access Center (PAC) at 11th & Mifflin Streets supplies turkeys to over a dozen neighbors in our area and EPX provides the rest of their Thanksgiving dinner.\u00c2\u00a0 Everything from salad to cranberry sauce, stuffing to green beans, mashed potatoes to gravy\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6and more.\u00c2\u00a0 The hard work of gathering donations, shopping and delivering these items falls to our Treasurer Millie Ruffino, our Recording Secretary Jo Cardillo and Member at-Large Pat Pitt.\u00c2\u00a0 Let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s give these ladies a great big round of applause!!!<\/p>\n

The remainder of the Winter Holidays sees EPX donating to many families in our boundaries a full array of Season\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Greetings; toys, home-goods, clothing and food. These items, in the form of gift cards, are given to needy families helping to make their holidays brighter! It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not to late to join in on the giving. If you wish to make a tax-deductible donation to aid EPX in our charitable efforts feel free to bring new, unused goods or monetary donations to our December General Membership meeting on Monday 12\/6 or donate here:<\/p>\n
