Andrew Swinney, president of The Philadelphia Foundation, looks on. The grant is the largest gift to The Emergency Fund for Older Philadelphians in more than 25 years, and will ensure that more than 1,000 low-income seniors will be able to afford to heat their homes, put food on the table and pay for medicine this winter.
