Voices from the Community

To date, our company has successfully utilized NMTCs in 5 development projects in the toughest neighborhoods in Philadelphia. In all circumstances, we have created 100s of jobs, started new diverse businesses, brought quality goods and services to food and health deserts and created affordable housing opportunities in these neighborhoods. Stopping this funding source will negatively impact greatly, communities in need.

The office building supports 400 fulltime employees of Mosaic Life through its flexible work environment where staff have a combination of home/office time. The building provides enough office space for 250 employees with management implementing a unique rotational system that has 200 employees work downtown for three days while the other 200 employees work at home and then rotating staff such that other 200 employees come downtown for the remaining two workdays out of the week.
