Mission Statement

We are here because whenever we encounter war grandmothers must work to insure peace for all children and grandchildren.


We are here to fight against the loss of civil liberties and human rights and the wars that result when democratic principles are broken.


We are here now because we are outraged by the deaths of American troops and Iraqi citizens in a senseless war


We are Granny Peace Brigade Philadelphia.
Join Us
We welcome all ages, women and men, grandparents or not.
