Community of Leaders
One of the best things about our November Project Philly crew is that there is a culture around leading together that is actively encouraged among the group. Below are a few of the faces, among the many more we want to highlight, that have taken on leadership roles within the NP Philly community.
The Great April Fool’s Day Co-Leader Swap (Chicago)
There's no way we weren't celebrating a Friday April Fools

Spring is in the air and we are (temporarily) back to doing three workouts here at NP NYC! That means we get to spend even more time with each other every week! How normal does that feel?! With all this extra time we’re spending together, we wanted to lend a reminder of our purpose here. We want to continue to be the community that we love enough to show up to more mornings than we sleep in.
We’re glad you’re here Shannon! (PA Q&A)
How, when and where were you introduced to November Project?
I actually came to NP a couple times back in 2016 but was really only there for a workout, didn’t meet anyone, and didn’t give the NP community a fair shot. I started consistently showing up in early Fall 2019 as a way to meet new people and feel a part of DC again, as I was living in Arlington at the time and missed DC life.
March Madness! The Final Countdown!
We’ve worked our bracket down from 32 all the way to the Final 4 in an effort to find the Ultimate NP_WWW move to add to our PR Day! Now the only thing left to do is VOTE!!
We want to know what you think!
From now until March 28th at 11:59pm you can post a picture on Instagram and tag November Project WWW(https://www.instagram.com/novemberprojectwww/) highlighting your favorite of the 4 moves! Maybe its’s doing jumping jacks in front of a gorgeous sunrise, or showing off airport push ups (looking at you NP Boston) or making someone else do some squats or even a gorgeous picture of a bicycle! Get creative!!! There might just be a special prize for the most creative photo.
The four moves to choose from are…
No More Secrets – Breaking The Bias!
Hello everyone! A lot has been happening here with November Project Philly and the crew over the last week. To continue with that trend we wanted to invite you all to join us in celebrating and observing International Womens Day!! Woooo! We kicked off our celebration this morning by launching our Menstrual Product Drive that will go from Wednesday, March 9th to Wednesday, March 23rd. This product drive will be in support of No More Secrets, a local, grassroots organization whose identity is rooted in sexuality awareness and whose focus is to decrease risk in vulnerable populations through the development and implementation of sustainable programming and polices.
Black History Philly pt. III: Bringing It Home
Back like we never left! Thanks for joining us for week 3 of celebrating Black History Month with November Project Philadelphia! If you haven’t read the first couple of posts in this series about Harriet Tubman and Octavius Catto or the Christian Street YMCA , we highly encourage for you to check them out, either before or after you read this. Each week this February we have been encouraging readers like you to participate in a scavenger hunt to explore and connect with historical places commemorating and acknowledging the contributions of African Americans in Philadelphia’s history. Each week we have identified people or places for you to learn more information about, and this week we will be talking about Julian Abele and his contributions to the very land we, November Project Philly, have been calling home for over 8 years.

Black History Philly continued….
Welcome back! And thanks for tuning into week 2 of celebrating Black History Month with November Project Philadelphia! For the month of February we would like to invite you to participate in a scavenger hunt to find and connect with historical places commemorating and acknowledging the impact of African Americans in our cities history. Each week we will feature individuals and/or locations for you to visit, and spotlight their significance to the Philadelphia community. Additionally, we will provide you with a list of other individuals and/or locations for you to reference, research and visit on your own. Last week we highlighted Harriet Tubman and Octavius Catto, whose statues currently reside at the North and South end of City Hall, respectively. This week we will be talking about the Christian Street YMCA, the second black YMCA location in America.
