Help Maria raise money

For participating in 2025 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend

My Story…

As the Executive Director of the Squirrel Hill Urban Coalition, I passionately support the many programs and initiatives that have a positive impact on the Squirrel Hill neighborhood and its neighboring communities. I have been a long-time volunteer for a number of local nonprofits, including the Homeless Childrens' Education Fund- a vital organization committed to creating a community where youth experiencing homelessness or unstable housing can leverage their education to flourish as productive, empowered adults. I currently live in Squirrel Hill with my husband,  two teenage sons,  and our family’s adorable dogs.

Description
