America runs on dunkin, sure, but we all know Philly runs on sports (and we actually found out that the @philadelphiaeagles ALSO do keep @dunkin on draft at their training facility - v. cool.) EITHER WAY - in a city that lives for the biggest of games, it’s always important to remember the immigrants who bring the heat to the field, court, or ice. Join @welcomingcenter for an evening celebrating Moro Ojomo, a Nigerian immigrant AND Super Bowl champ! That’s right - The Welcoming Center invites Moro Ojomo, Defensive Tackle for the Philadelphia Eagles, proud Nigerian immigrant, and of course, a Super Bowl champion, to the table. Moro brings talent and heart to a game that is embedded in our city’s culture, while reminding everyone that it’s bigger than any one place.
