My Story…
I am so excited to be back running the half marathon this year for Open Hand Ministries. This is my 3rd time running for OHM to raise awareness and donations to this wonderful organization that is near and dear to my heart.
Open Hand Ministries promotes justice in the East End of Pittsburgh by building a diverse community focused on financial wellness, equity creation, and home-ownership. Initially founded as a ministry of four churches, we respond to social injustice and inequality plaguing our city by providing opportunities for sustainable and affordable home ownership for families in fragile situations. We serve our community by creating community. We partner with like-hearted organizations and individuals, urban and suburban churches, community development corporations, lending agencies, expert trade skill professionals, funding organizations, and other local support agencies in order to equip our families and community for financial success and, if they choose, homeownership.
We provide free financial counseling (goal setting, credit rating, debt reduction, budgeting) and money management workshops. If families choose home ownership as a goal, we help them navigate the path. We facilitate affordable home ownership by acquiring vacant properties and renovating them to superior energy/quality standards.
Description
Let's make Pittsburgh more than a "livable city" for just some of us. Help transform Pittsburgh into a just home for all of us!
