PHILADELPHIA Today is more than just a news site; think of us as your go-to community journal for all things positive in Philadelphia.

In an age dominated by grievance and doomerism, we’re here to celebrate the good stuff — whether it’s the vibrant local culture, economic achievements, or the simple joys of city life.

Under the stewardship of Editor Jensen Toussaint, PHILADELPHIA Today delivers the stories that matter locally and remind us that we live in a special time and place. Each post is 100-percent original and written by people for people.

Why do so many love reading PHILADELPHIA Today? Well, for starters, we sift through a sea of news to bring you the best of Philadelphia — from Center City to Old City, from Point Breeze to Port Richmond, from Manayunk to Mount Airy, and everywhere in between.

Our stories are ones you might not find easily, especially if they’re tucked away behind a paywall or in a far corner of the vast Internet. Our curated stories are tailored to provide the most relevant details to local readers while ensuring they remain properly sourced, accurate, balanced, and engaging.

We get that your mornings are busy. That’s why we send you a crisp, to-the-point newsletter with the day’s top stories. You’ll find it in your inbox every morning, except Sundays.

Our stories are like a breath of fresh air — short, factual, and free of fluff. Plus, we’re big believers in the power of positivity. While mainstream media often focuses on what’s wrong and what’s broken, we’re committed to challenging that narrative by sharing positive news that uplifts and strengthens our 45,000 Philadelphia subscribers and social media followers.

But we don’t do it alone. We team up with local businesses and organizations to spotlight the good they’re doing. Through these partnerships, we create content that not only informs but enriches your life.

So, why not join our growing family of nearly 250,000 Delaware Valley subscribers and social media followers? Subscribe to our newsletters or follow us on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter or Instagram. Your support helps keep our content free and accessible to everyone.

And just so you know, we’re part of the American Community Journals family, which means you can also check out our sister publications like MONTCO Today, VISTA Today, DELCO Today, and BUCKSCO Today for more upbeat, positive regional news.

Just to be clear, we’re not a journalism project. We’re a community journal that aims to make a positive impact. Come be a part of it! Subscribe today.
