About this organization
Mission
The Pittsburgh Foundation works to improve the quality of life in the Pittsburgh region by evaluating and addressing community issues, promoting responsible philanthropy, and connecting donors to the critical needs of the community.
About
In this area, the foundation supports high quality, public education for students in pre-kindergarten to twelfth grade, to assure that all students can achieve at their highest potential. Grantmaking targets the Pittsburgh public schools and other low-resource school districts by supporting projects that seek to improve educational achievement for all students and narrow the racial achievement gap. Grantmaking also supports programs that seek to disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline, that practice restorative justice, and implement policies that advance racial equity. Education grants are also made to nonprofit organizations that work in partnership with school districts to provide professional development for teachers and out-of-school programming.
