Free Light Bulbs from 26th PD

South Kensington Community Partners

The 26th Police District is giving out LED "dusk to dawn" light bulbs. These bulbs emit a bright white light and turn on during low light conditions. The goal is to provide as many 26th District residents with a bulb for the front of their properties (one per household). 

Residents can come to the 26th District Monday - Friday, 9AM - 3PM to obtain one light bulb to install as an exterior light on the front of their house. All you need to do is leave the light switch on and the bulb will activate during low light. Residents of the 26th District must bring an ID card or other type of documentation (utility bill, cell phone bill, etc) and provide their name and address for our records. Residents who are elderly or disabled and cannot travel to the district can contact police.co_26@phila.gov or call 215-686-3260. 

Neighbors can also pick up light bulbs from SKCP during our office hours.
