Seidler was known for walking around neighborhoods talking to people without homes trying to figure out what they needed and how the issue could be addressedIf Peter Seidler had never bought the Padres and turned them into a relevant franchise, he would still have had a seismic impact on San Diego . Seidler worked tirelessly to improve the lives of others in his adopted hometown. For those efforts, the San Diego Rotary Club named him Mr. San Diego Thursday.
"There was really no debate. There was really no discussion. Peter was the overwhelming choice, not just because of all the things he did with his treasure, but what he did because of his time and his talent," says Dave Oates, former San Diego Rotary Club President. Seidler was known for walking around neighborhoods talking to people without homes trying to figure out what they needed and how the issue could be addressed. He helped start the Lucky Duck Foundation, dedicated to figuring out a solution.
Seidler helped the Jackie Robinson YMCA open a brand new athletic field and worked with the Monarch School in San Diego, helping unhoused children with their educations. He was also a founding member of the Stand Up to Cancer Legacy Endowment Circle dedicated to fight the disease that, sadly, took his life.
