The Pittsburgh Foundation is the 14th largest community foundation in the country. Since 1945, it has worked to improve the quality of life in the Pittsburgh region by evaluating and addressing community issues, promoting charitable giving, and connecting donors to the critical needs of the community. Many generous individuals have invested in their community by establishing over 1,000 funds at the Foundation, benefiting a wide variety of nonprofit organizations and community needs.Through donor designated funds, donors may give to the organization of their choice. Community Fund grants at The Pittsburgh Foundation are awarded in five targeted areas for impact:
- Achieving Educational Excellence and Equity
- Fostering Economic Development
- Supporting Families, Children and Youth
- Reducing Disparities in Health Outcomes
- Advancing the Arts
There is also a Responsiveness Fund, which makes unrestricted grants to organizations that fall outside these five goal areas.
