The CHCA, founded in 1948, will celebrate its 75th Anniversary in 2023 and our Annual Appeal is more ambitious and exciting than ever this year.
The CHCA has successfully served its mission to enrich the quality of life for the people who live, work, and visit Chestnut Hill for 75 years. Its efforts were enhanced in 1958 when the Chestnut Hill Local newspaper emerged as a community forum. Today The Local is a well-respected and indispensable resource for the community at large. Together the CHCA and The Local have provided more than a combined 125 years of dedicated service to our community.
This year because of a pressing need, we are including The Local in our Annual Appeal.
The CHCA brings local organizations together and provides a public forum in its role as the convening Registered Community Organization (RCO) in Chestnut Hill. We proudly serve more than 10,000 area residents, and the thousands more who visit Philadelphia’s “Garden District.”
Through our values of Service, Advocacy, and Community the CHCA has been the driving force to foster and improve social interactions and activities among our constituents. The Local, which shares the same values, is the source of credible news and information affecting the quality of life in our part of the Philadelphia area.
Along with membership fees, the Chestnut Hill Community Association relies heavily on your generosity and our events to fund our operations. This year, The Local has an immediate and urgent need for donations to upgrade their computers and software. We ask you to join us in celebrating a strong and sustaining Chestnut Hill spirit by giving generously to this Appeal’s $200,000 goal to benefit both the CHCA and The Local.
By mutual agreement between the CHCA and The Local, donations to the Appeal will be shared as follows: Up to $150,000, two-thirds of the collected funds will go to the CHCA and one-third to The Local. All donations above that total will be shared equally between the two organizations.
The CHCA funds will be directed towards the following programs and activities:
The Local’s funds will be directed towards:
May we please count on you to make a gift to the Chestnut Hill Community Association that will impact both these organizations?
You can make your tax-deductible donation online at chestnuthill.org/donate or on chestnuthilllocal.com, or mail your check to CHCA, 8434 Germantown Avenue, Philadelphia, Pa., 19118. On behalf of the board of the CHCA, we appreciate your consideration. Thank you for your support and have a joyous holiday season.

CHCA Board President
