The Neighborhood Civic PAC is a medium for like-minded Philadelphia residents to carry out public service initiatives..."it's all about the neighborhoods." The Neighborhood Civic PAC is designed to help jumpstart civic associations in various neighborhoods and resurrect ones that were once mighty and help such associations get acclimated to the political process so that they may utilize this to the advantage of the neighborhood and constituency for which they represent.

Cummings for Council? (Reprinted from Wednesday's Daily News)

Cummings for Council?
Lobbyist and former City Council candidate Sean Reilly (best known lately for being the brother of Sen. Vince Fumo's girlfriend Terri Reilly) met with Neighborhood Civic PAC members Joe DeFelice and Ed Dixon the other day at the Palm (200 S. Broad) about drafting Mayfair Civic Association president Scott Cummings, a Republican, to run for City Council in 2007. Cummings is considering a run for Joan Krajewski's 6th District seat, which she'll vacate in 2007. Democratic front runner is state Rep. Mike McGeehan, who hasn't yet announced his candidacy. A Cummings fundraiser is scheduled for 6 p.m. July 21 at Liberties (2nd & Fairmount). There's an open bar and buffet for those with a $25 check for the Neighborhood Civic PAC.
