In fairness, it’s pretty well run - priorities mean different things to different people. To me, I think they should make what they have amazing, and then additional funding becomes easier due to a critical mass.
But I will say, for whatever reason, Philly orgs seem to be terrible at grassroots capital fundraising. If the Haas Family doesn’t donate $$mmillion to a pocket park that a n’hood group wants to build - then, welp, better luck next year. Some of it takes manpower, but a lot of it is just initiative and know-how.
