GREETINGS NEIGHBORS!

 Welcome to the Perry Hall Improvement Associations's (PHIA) web site!  We hope you find the site to be a useful tool for staying informed about       local issues and PHIA events.

Although the PHIA has been in existence for 80 years and is one of the oldest and largest civic organizations in northeast Baltimore County, people often ask: “What does the PHIA do?”  To summarize, the PHIA is dedicated to ensuring that we all remain proud to call Perry Hall “home.”

The PHIA is a unique community organization. While some organizations focus almost exclusively on advocacy, events, or service projects, the PHIA is actively engaged in all three activities on a regular basis.  Since Perry Hall is not incorporated, the PHIA is the dominant community-wide    coalition in the area. 

An early version of the PHIA operated during the Second World War, when Perry Hall residents organized a Health Committee to help veterans purchase wheelchairs, crutches, and other equipment. After the war ended, many of these leaders decided to create a permanent organization. The first meeting of the Perry Hall Improvement Association was held on July 31, 1945.

    The Perry Hall Improvement Association is only as strong as its numbers. Please join us in making Perry Hall a great place to live, work, and play. 

   Become a member and participate in the PHIA.  When we have more members, our collective voice is stronger when we advocate for the                         community, the events are more fun, and the service opportunities expand.
