Live! Casino in South Philadelphia will donate $750,000 to help complete the rebuild of a neighborhood park. The casino and city officials pulled out all the stops Tuesday to celebrate the donation.
The Mummers, food, cocktails and former Eagle Ron Jaworski leading an “E-A-G-L-E-S” cheer were all part of the announcement, by owner John Cordish, that Live! Casino is giving the city’s Rebuild program the money to finish the rehab of Murphy Recreation Center in South Philadelphia.
“Murphy Rec Center is a critical hub for the community,” said Cordish. “We hope this contribution will impact the residents for generations to come.”
