The Philadelphia Community Corps deconstructs abandoned homes, blighted buildings, and other properties, saving valuable and sometimes irreplaceable building materials from the landfill. The property owner gets a tax deduction, and the PCC resells the salvaged materials to fund its other core mission -- a job training and career development program. It's an ambitious and innovative nonprofit working in Philadelphia and we wanted to know more about it. Executive Director Greg Trainor is on the podcast to talk about PCC's mission, it's salvage program called Philly Reclaim, the hurdles the nonprofit has to navigate to be successful in Philadelphia, and how you can help out.
