Director of Homeless Services
Erin L.
WHY I WORK HERE:
“I am a justice-seeker. Men experiencing homelessness rarely find justice as they navigate systems meant to help but often that fail them. I work at Philly House to stand in the gap and help our men find justice.”
Director of Staffing
Mark Blevins
WHY I WORK HERE:
“I believe I was led to do something meaningful. I worked corporate jobs for years and was never happy at what I was doing. I prayed to be led in the right direction to a job that would help make an impact and difference in some way. Working at Philly House has answered my prayers and allows me the opportunity to help the hurting, hungry and homeless of Philadelphia."
Director of Facilities
Carmen Anuzzi
WHY I WORK HERE:
“I work at Philly House to provide the best customer service to our guests, staff and volunteers. I have a goal to start a maintenance & janitorial program, to help transition the homeless into the workforce."
Shelter Manager
Irene Blackwell
WHY I WORK HERE:
"I understand how many of our brothers are overlooked and undermined. I also believe in meeting people where they are in life and respecting everyone as a human being. It is my duty to listen and help them understand that they are loved and deserve respect, and to be treated like human beings as God created them."
Volunteer and Community Relations Manager
Jaqi Watkins
WHY I WORK HERE:
“Being vulnerable enough to sit and eat with the men at Philly House opened my eyes and transformed my heart for the real people experiencing homelessness. That drives me to invite others into that same experience to mobilize together toward life transformation in our city."

Joseph Gonzalez
WHY I WORK HERE:
“To invest into not only the hearts and minds of our homeless population at Philly House, but also the wellbeing of their souls.”
Case Manager
Andres Rodriguez
WHY I WORK HERE:
"I am honored to work at Philly House because of three words that I hold dear to my heart and which are embedded in our values here: 'Dignity, Hope and Intentional.'
