Join the Mayor's Office of Black Male Engagement (OBME) on July 28 at the Franklin Institute for the premiere event of A Hope That Lights the Way, a groundbreaking documentary aiming to redefine the narrative surrounding gun violence in Philadelphia.
This film showcases community leaders and organizations, or "Hope Dealers," who are committed to violence prevention and intervention. By highlighting their strategies and experiences, we aim to close opportunity gaps and inspire others to expand this critical work.
Through the power of hope, belief, and tangible support, this documentary encourages residents in Philadelphia and beyond that there is hope to overcome the challenges of gun violence. We invite you to be a part of this, and help build a safer, more hopeful Philadelphia for all.
This free premiere event includes a dinner reception, and conversation with our film makers and "Hope Dealers". RSVP required.
