Our Team

Philly Thrive is a basebuilding member-led organization. We organize in small groups called "action circles" that move forward critical pieces of our work.

We are currently operating on a significantly downsized staff due to impacts from the termination of our first-ever federal grant which occurred in May 2025.

  • Shawmar Pitts, Co-Managing Director
  • Alexa Ross, Co-Managing Director
  • Jason Puglionesi, Interim Operations Coordinator Building Manager

Thank you for your patience as we have limited capacity to field inquiries about our work during this period of re-building the organization. All inquiries can be first directed to [email protected]
