What Are The Philadelphia Family LOVE Awards & Family Favorites?
The annual Philadelphia Family LOVE Awards and Family Favorites recognize the BEST local resources for families, based on recent outstanding experiences and trusted recommendations from parents. Our Philly Family Community Facebook group has a reputation for helping parents find friends and trusted referrals and our LOVE Awards and Family Favorites elevates stories of great experiences. Winners and Favorites will be selected using a QUALITY OVER QUANTITY approach, meaning that each nomination is evaluated by a human looking for specific reasons why the recommended business or nonprofit should be recognized.
Nominations are open until Valentine’s Day. The Philadelphia Family team will recognize and connect LOVE Award Winners and Family Favorite Honorees in our annual Best for Families Guide and with special events including the LOVE Luncheon at Terrain DelVal on March 26, 2025 and the Best for Families Celebration at the Radnor Valley County Club on April 3, 2025.
