Phipps Houses

This #Thanksgiving, our hearts are filled with gratitude as we reflect on the moments of connection and community that have brightened the past year. We are happy to share we provided turkeys to over 3,000 families across the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens. ?? Thank you to all who joined us in giving back: Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson, Councilmember Rafael Salamanca Jr., Assemblymember Karine Reyes, Councilmember Oswald Feliz, Senator Luis Sepulveda, Assemblymember Khaleel Anderson, and NYPD. Here's to a season filled with gratitude, togetherness, and the joy of giving back. #PhippsPride #TogetherWeThrive

We hosted a tree planting ceremony in honor of Lynda Simmons, former President of Phipps Houses. Her tenure as President (1982-1993) was marked by her unwavering commitment to nurturing and enriching the lives of those within our community beyond thoughtfully designed infrastructure. As a true community builder, Ms Simmons vision addressed the needs of our neighborhoods with strategic planning and thoughtful consideration. Advocating for pairing affordable housing with human services, she understood our communities needed more than just quality housing. The tree we planted in her memory stands as a symbol of growth, a living tribute to Lynda Simmons' legacy. Her memory inspires us to continue mirroring her dedication and forging pathways that will build thriving communities. ??
