C&C Athletic Association is a non-profit community based organization in the West Philadelphia area. C&C stands for Courage and Commitment and got its start in January, 1980. 

We are now in our 27th year of providing services to the residents of West Philly.  

C&C seeks to help the community as a whole through sports, workshops, trips, educational and mentoring programs.  C&C is a non-discriminatory organization and is open to all people in the Philadelphia area.  The organization is funded through private donations and gifts from charitable groups.

C&C is a proud member of  Philadelphia Community Activist Networking Group- The Coalition

For Philly Resources with housing, healthcare and child advocacy- Contact Philly SOS

****************************************************



Thanks to all who participated by donating money for the  Saturday, November 15th lunch donation to officers at the 12th and precincts- 65th Woodland Ave. The officers were very appreciative of the gesture and thoughts after the recent killings and car deaths of Philly Police Officers.
***********************************************
Thanks for all of the can goods and cash donations given this year at the ANNUAL HOLIDAY GATHERING at Chili's.  The food and clothing have gone to families in need and the monetary donations were turned into gift cards and given to a group of local high school students living in shelters for the holidays.
If anyone knows of someone in need, let Calvin know.


Next Weekend of Peace Meeting
 

The next meeting for the annual Weekend of Peace will be held January 13th at  7:00 pm.  Location to be determined. Organizations who wish to participate in the activities for that week should have a representative present.



Have a safe and healthy holiday!
