Ron Jaworski’s Foundation, Jaws Youth Playbook, partnered with Marc Vetri’s Foundation, Vetri Community Partnership to host a Turkey Drive Block Party presented by ACME MARKETS!   Each family was able to receive a turkey, canned and fresh vegetables, fresh dinner rolls from Liscio’s Bakery, a gift card from Acme Markets, and many smiles. Each family was then invited to enjoy the block party atmosphere with face painting, soccer drills, food demonstrations, and free books!  This fun-filled day helped fight food insecurity in the Spring Garden section of Philadelphia. Not only did we distribute food but Jaws and Marc were able to team up to have a cooking demonstration. Teaching families how to cook is just as important as giving them access to healthy, fresh food!    We thank everyone who supported this amazing event in the Spring Garden Section of Philadelphia. It was truly an amazing day with many laughs, hugs, and smiles.

Over the next year, Vetri Community Partnership hosts free hands-on, cooking classes for residents in the Community Teaching Kitchen. Ron Jaworski’s Foundation, Jaws Youth Playbook, was able to donate $10,000 to support cooking classes to ensure the Spring Garden community learns how to cook nutritious and healthy meals for their families!

Ron Jaworski’s Foundation, Jaws Youth Playbook, volunteered with the South Jersey Dream Center to help provide package turkey dinners for families in our backyard!

With the rise in food prices, we understand the need for access to affordable food, especially during the holidays. That’s why JYP donated $5,000 to South Jersey Dream Center to help provide necessary meals to those in the South Jersey Community.
