Remembering Father Paul M. Washington

Father Paul, as most people referred to him, was seen by many as a gentle shepherd. His book, Other Sheep I Have, chronicled his many acts of service and bravery in search of peace and justice throughout the Pennsylvania and, indeed, the world at large. His canvas was the world, the people his flock, and his calling and mission was to be a servant for justice and peace.

In recognition of his unselfish love and life of unending empathy, The Philadelphia Foundation and the family of Father Paul have commemorated his legacy by continuing his acts of giving to those in need. The Paul M. Washington Fund for Those Needing a Helping Hand honors the beloved presence of this loving man and will enable the continuation of his work and his concern for others to go forward.

Supporting the renaming of Diamond Street in his honor. One of the areas of the world where he nurtured his flock.
