The AOH 87 Post, the Port Richmond on Patrol and Civic Association and Saint George Board of Limited Jurisdiction created the Port Richmond Strong Fund."We’ve been doing these bucket drops for some time and they are successful," said McGovern. "This one is the most successful I’ve ever been involved with. The neighborhood came out in droves and generosity is abounding. It’s just amazing.
"PROPAC, the AOH and St. George’s, we’ve all gotten together and decided this is what we could do," said Maria Gallagher the President of the LAOH in Pa. "There’s going to be events for the next 45 days. At the end of the 45 days, we will gather all the funds we have raised for the families and they will be dispersed."
