Help George raise money

For participating in 2024 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend

Why I support The Pittsburgh Project

I had the opportunity to jump into the Pittsburgh half-marathon Sunday last minute and wanted to raise at least a little $ for an excellent Pittsburgh based charity!  So psyched to run the Pittsburgh half-marathon again and love the mission of this Pittsburgh, Northside based charity!  I met a kind and inspiring representative from the Pittsburgh Project a few weeks ago after a run a few weeks on the Northside from Mike's.  

They help families and children in K-12 on the Northside by providing a fun and inspiring summer camp, tutoring & mentoring opportunities in a safe, educationally innovative, and inspiring environment.  The kids are challenged to discover new talents through options that include a music studio, robotics, world cultures, art and more.  You can read more by clicking the link.  Volunteers also help with homework and day-to-day learnings and activities.

Thanks for reading.  Super psyched to run one of the best and still growing marathons in the country.  Any donation greatly appreciated.

Description

The Pittsburgh Project strives to care for people by sharing hope, empowering youth and building community.  We have served the residents of the Northside for the past 38 years.  We offer innovative educational opportunities for children and youth K-12 grades, through summer camps and after school programs.  We assist community residents through partnerships with the URA and local church groups.  Thank you for partnering with us to "Run for a Reason"!
