The Pittsburgh Foundation is one of the largest community foundations in the nation. Funds given to The Pittsburgh Foundation are permanent endowments and are invested by the Foundation to provide income for scholarship grants. The fund may also include memorial gifts, actually creating a generic scholarship fund open to all types of gifts. It provides an annual award to a deserving Valley High School senior and would apply toward tuition at an accredited post-high school institution of advanced learning. Over the years, as the Fund grows, the number of awards will grow also.
Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.
