Our friend Steve Seweryn passed away on September 30, 2008. Steve was more than just RTP's executive director (since 2001). He was a father, grandfather, husband, neighbor, leader, and friend. We have the warmest memories of Steve's energy, integrity, and talent; his life shined out and touched so many. We will cherish the memories of the times we spent together, and Steve's legacy of neighbors helping neighbors at RTP. Steve will remain within our hearts, and we will continue to honor his passion for the mission of RTP.

RTP's Board of Directors established the Stephen C. Seweryn Memorial Fund within the RTP endowment in 2008. Gifts in memory of Steve continue to be directed toward this endowment, and can be sent to Rebuilding Together Philadelphia, P.O. Box 42752, Philadelphia, PA 19101-2752.
