What is your Big Idea for Philadelphia?
Rocky Revisited: Can-do atty-tude
It is evident from the do-it-yourself movement happening in cities today that social and environmental change is happening from folks on the ground. It is no different in Philadelphia, and I believe what is next for Philadelphia will be an expanded movement of engaged citizens committed to building community. This inspirational talk will illustrate through successful community-building examples and initiatives how every day Philadelphians can adopt the “can-do atty-tude” and training program of our own legend, Rocky Balboa, to make a difference in their neighborhoods.
