PER HIS WEBSITE -
Aizaz Joseph Gill’s life has revolved around the core value of service to America, our communities, and our people - something instilled in him throughout his upbringing in Northeast Philadelphia after his parents immigrated to Pennsylvania from South Asia when he was nine years old.
Whether at St. Cecilia, Father Judge High School, or Chestnut Hill College, where he earned his bachelor’s degree, Aizaz was schooled in the value of helping others - and chose to follow that path in his professional life upon graduation from college.
Gill spent years working for City Commissioner Al Schmidt (now Pennsylvania’s Secretary of the Commonwealth) as a Community Outreach Coordinator where he spearheaded outreach efforts to educate voters on the use of a new voting system in Philadelphia, battled misinformation as a frontline election worker, and strategically engaged community, local, state and federal institutions to collaborate on voter outreach and education. He was the first multilingual Asian-American hire for the Philadelphia City Commissioners, helping usher in more language accessibility
Gill previously served as the Pennsylvania Policy Director for Business for America, a corporate alliance dedicated to strengthening democracy and facilitating a healthy business climate to foster job creation for American families. In that role, Gill’s focus was to build coalitions with business leaders to expand a multifaceted education and advocacy campaign centered around developing civic engagement, increasing political stability and reducing polarization.
Most recently, Gill served as manager for Philadelphia City Councilman Brian O’Neill’s re-election campaign, helping develop the strategy and infrastructure that led to the incumbent’s landslide victory this past November.
Gill’s work helping our families extends beyond the professional. Along with giving time and energy to local charities, he currently serves as president of the Burholme Townwatch and Civic Association.
