Hello Everyone

My name is Glenn McCracken and I wanted to take just a minute of
your time to introduce you to "The Pride of Philadelphia."

ThePrideofPhiladelphia.com is a brand new "community" website
dedicated to joining the efforts of other groups, organizations,
websites and blogs which attempt to communicate a positive theme
about Philadelphia.

ThePrideofPhiladelphia.com reports the GOOD NEWS of
Philadelphia !! We publish features about our remarkable
Philadelphians - our "Giants", our "Unsung Heroes" and our "Present
Day Ben Franklins." These people encompass all the neighborhoods
and "blocks" of Philadelphia. It is essentially "news under the
radar screen" which falls outside of the major media.

The hope and intent is that those who read our news will themselves
be inspired and in turn, either begin or continue in, creating their
own good news. They can be encouraged by knowing that other people
in other parts of Philadelphia are working just as hard as they are
in making our city a better place.

We also issue a free newsletter. I would like to offer a
complementary electronic issue to all of you. You can download it
by going to

Also, our website can post your upcoming events that you make us
aware of. And through our "Giving Heart – Good Cause" section, we
can broaden the exposure to organizations such as Grace Café, which
we just now became aware of as a result of one of your posts.

We also hope that you would contribute "stories" to our website,
recognizing the good works of the good people in your respective
groups. We know the unselfish people who are our "Unsung Heroes"
don't do it for the recognition. But a pat on the back sometimes
goes a long way and beyond that, their stories inspire others to act.

Your feedback and ideas on the website would be very much
appreciated. You can log on by going to

Thank you very much.
