Show Notes

This week on Bridging Philly, Sistahs in Transformation speak on their upcoming Women's Empowerment Conference happening at the end of September. Sistahs in Transformation is a non-profit that was founded amid the COVID-19 pandemic. We hear how three local women came together to make a safe space for Black and Brown women to be empowered by taking control of their mental, physical, and financial health, while supporting others along the journey.

Our Newsmaker of the Week highlights Raheem Bell. Bell was a victim of a carjacking attempt when he got shot at close range earlier this year. Now, the public school teacher is inspired to share his experience while healing through community give-back events.

This week’s Philly Rising Changemaker started out by spending a day feeding the homeless in Kensington. That grew into serving the community every day by helping those recovering from addiction. As National Recovery Month begins, we talk with Darnell Hinton , President and CEO of Teach One Feed One, which helps individuals get through every stage of recovery.
