6.27.24 | General
PHILADELPHIA – Temple University Athletics has been named a 2024 honoree of the Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia by the Chamber of Commerce for Greater Philadelphia (the Chamber), in partnership with globally recognized nonprofit Points of Light, lead partner the Philadelphia Foundation, and other local partners. Modeled after Points of Light's national program, the Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia measures and recognizes civic-minded companies using their time, talent, and resources to drive social impact within their organizations and communities – setting the standard for civic engagement in the region.
"I would like to thank our student-athletes, coaches and staff for their commitment to giving back to the community as well as the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce for recognizing that commitment with this prestigious honor," said Temple University's Vice President and Debbie and Stanley Lefkowitz '65 Director of Athletics Arthur Johnson. "I would also like to acknowledge the leadership of Associate Athletics Director for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Student-Athlete Development Prince Moody and Coordinator of Leadership Operations Tia Withers for their hard work in coordinating these initiatives."
The 2024 Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia honorees represent private and public companies, as well as nonprofits, agencies, and institutions (e.g., hospitals and universities) of more than 10 employees operating in the 11-county Greater Philadelphia region. They have been selected based on four dimensions of their community engagement program:
• Investment of resources;
• Integration across business functions;
• Institutionalization through policies and systems; and
• Impact measurement.
Since 2011, the national Civic 50 has provided a national standard for superior corporate citizenship and has showcased how companies drive social impact in their business and within the community.
"The Chamber is proud to recognize Temple University Athletics as a 2024 honoree of the Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia," said Chellie Cameron, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Chamber. "Each of this year's honorees are valued members of Greater Philadelphia's business community, exemplifying what it means to be a positive corporate citizen and demonstrating the power of service. We thank Temple University Athletics for their efforts to drive impact and congratulate them on this tremendous achievement."
In keeping with the Chamber's efforts to drive regional impact and achieve its vision, it also serves as home to the Greater Philadelphia Corporate Volunteer Network (GPCVN), a community of diverse businesses committed to giving back to their communities.
The Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia honorees were officially recognized on Thursday, June 27, 2024, at an Honoree Reveal Celebration hosted at the Cira Centre.
