CHARITABLE

Because the funder publicly notes grants are by preselection, applicants should pursue relationship-based routes: secure introductions through shared networks, trustees, or referral partners and demonstrate clear alignment with the foundation's charitable patterns (local Pittsburgh service providers or well-established national charities). Public application materials and contact info make outreach possible, but unsolicited proposals are unlikely to be successful without a prior connection.
