Thanks to support from the Richard King Mellon Foundation and with guidance from park users and community leaders, the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy is advancing work to revitalize Baxter Park in Homewood and upgrade entrances, signage, and connectivity in Mellon Park.

Congratulations to The Conservation Fund on this most meaningful milestone. As the story notes, the Foundation supports “this important work because The Conservation Fund and its project partners are making a real difference for all future generations of Americans. We are thankful to everyone who helped us reach this moment — and we eagerly look forward to the next million acres being protected.” #philanthropy #conservation #environment

Congratulations to the inaugural class of Duquesne University’s new medical school. The Foundation contributed $2 million to Duquesne’s new College of Osteopathic Medicine, which will focus on training primary-care physicians to serve in rural and urban areas where the shortage of primary-care physicians is most acute. Addressing that shortage is an essential step toward improving health and well-being in our communities. #philanthropy #healthandwellbeing #medicalschool

ElevateBio is excited to share the progress on its new biomanufacturing hub at Hazelwood Green – and so are we! The BioForge at Hazelwood Green, anchored by ElevateBio’s Basecamp, has the potential to create life-saving cell and gene therapies, and transformative economic growth. The benefits will start in Hazelwood and extend through Pittsburgh and beyond.

Opportunity is knocking – and Braddock is the beneficiary. Congratulations to Arctaris Impact Investors, RDC Design + Build and Allegheny County on the announcement that a closed vertical farm in Braddock will be repurposed for cold storage and manufacturing, creating 50 to 100 jobs. The Foundation invested $4 million with Arctaris to enable investments in Opportunity Zone communities such as Braddock. As Lee Kimball of Arctaris noted, “This is a perfect example of how new investment can go a long way in bringing jobs back.” #philanthropy #economicdevelopment #opportunityzones #manufacturing #socialimpactinvestments

A few months ago, thanks to a partnership between the Richard King Mellon Foundation and Roadtrip Nation, I had the opportunity to be interviewed by this amazing young man to talk about my career and share some insights.

We had an incredible conversation and he gave me hope for what this next generation wants to accomplish and the impact that he wants to have in this world.  Here's a quick 1-minute clip.
