| CURRENT PROJECT - WEST PHILADELPHIA EXPANSION
In 2008, Chosen 300 Ministries opened an additional homeless outreach site on the second floor of Millcreek Baptist Church located at 641 North Preston Street. With the help of five churches and a core group of volunteers, we provide meals to approximately 100-150 homeless and needy individuals every Friday in the West Philadelphia community. Due to limited space, we have now out-grown this location and have recently purchased a building located at 3959-61 Lancaster Ave for $244,000.00 of which we used Capital Campaign funds in the amount of $169,000.00, leaving an outstanding mortgage of $75,000.00.
Upon completion of renovations at the new West Philadelphia site, Chosen 300 will be able to add approximately 7-10 additional volunteer churches, allowing for triple the amount of hot meals to be served. In addition, we will also be able to expand services at this location to include a computer lab, learning lunch sessions, job readiness programs, and health support services.

Develop a 3-Tiered Transitional Center for homeless persons in Center City, Philadelphia. These facilities will be geared to provide the following services:
- Tier 1 - Dining Facility, serving nightly meals for 300 homeless and less fortunate individuals. - Tier 2 - Training Center, providing educational programs, vocational training, and instruction in ethical behavior. - Tier 3 - Six month Transitional Housing for approximately 35-50 homeless persons.
Estimated Cost of Total Project $1.5 Million
