PHILADELPHIA The Loews Philadelphia Hotel Holiday Trolley, presented through a new partnership between the hotel, the City of Philadelphia and SEPTA, will offer special Center City service between November 24 and December 31, 2000 to benefit underprivileged kids.
The brightly colored, steel-wheeled, vintage trolley cars will take riders to shopping, dining and other destinations between Bainbridge and Spring Garden Streets. Toy donations will be accepted aboard the Holiday Trolley between November 24 and the end of the service day on December 21, 2000 to benefit students at the Jackson School involved in the Pre-kindergarten Head Start Program. The Loews Hotel will underwrite the fare for every rider who donates a new, age-appropriate (ages three to five) toy upon boarding (one free fare per toy). (11/21/00)
