🌎 Celebrating Earth Day with our community.

Last weekend, our Friends Hospital team joined the Tookany/Tacony Frankford Watershed Partnership for a cleanup in Tacony Creek Park—the beautiful green space we’re proud to sit beside.

Caring for this park strengthens our community, protects local ecosystems, and supports the healing power of nature. We’re grateful for our ongoing partnership with TTF and will continue working together to keep this space thriving.
