The high fundraising goal of $100,000 was exceeded, for use in supporting the PHA community through the 3 core programs (and others) of PhillySEEDS, which include: 1) scholarships, 2) matching security deposit grants, and 3) matching 1st time homeowner closing cost assistance grants.
Surprise awards were also given to Sam Staten, Jr. and to Commissioner and Resident Advisory Board leader Asia Coney, as well as the scholarship awards being distributed. A night to remember and a perfect way to inspire more work for PhillySEEDS and appreciate all that has been done!
