Mission Statement
Friends in the City (FitC) is a non-profit organization of active older adults based in Center City Philadelphia who share common interests and purpose. Our goals are to take full advantage of city living, to socialize with each other, to give back to the community, and to enhance our healthy aging and enjoyment of life. FitC offers a choice of health and fitness, cultural, educational, creative, volunteer, and dining group activities and events, organized by members for members. Inspired by the values of the Society of Friends (Quakers), FitC welcomes members of all religious, ethnic, and cultural identities.
