PITTSBURGH, PA (April 27, 2018) Members of the media are invited to attend a presentation by Mayor William Peduto this morning to leading city stakeholders regarding plans for a social benefits fund to implement goals of the OnePGH Resilience Strategy.

Since January, Mayor Peduto has convened working groups to identify, develop and associate costs with the transformational projects that will lead the city to thrive by 2030, covering needs including affordable housing, universal Pre-K education, safe water, eradicating hunger and homelessness, and social and economic mobility and opportunity. Working with more than 125 local leaders his administration has created an Investment Prospectus to cover the capital funding necessary to address those needs. Today he will discuss the creation of a social benefits fund that would mobilize Pittsburgh's public, private, nonprofit and philanthropic sectors to work together and make the targeted investments needed to improve quality of life for all Pittsburgh residents.
