We’ve engaged a network of more than 1,200 friends and their families and expanded the scope of our work significantly, offering more than 200 recreational and educational programs a year. We are expanding efforts to engage our young adults’ ages 18 – 45 of all abilities through initiatives like Friends on the Town and i-Volunteer, which offer opportunities for older members to develop meaningful relationships with individuals and organizations. We hope to build on this work with the help of our alumni as we seek to make genuinely equal social opportunities for everyone.
The Young Adult Network Leadership Council is working to continue fostering Friendship Circle’s mission, establish continuity of alumni involvement, and connect with Pittsburgh’s young adult community. In order to achieve these goals there are subcommittees. They are Brand Ambassador/Education Outreach, Fundraising, Event Development and Community Engagement, and Alumni Outreach.
The Alumni Council aims to continue fostering Friendship Circle’s mission among current and past members of the Pittsburgh delegation, establish continuity of alumni involvement and foster lasting investment in Friendship Circle.
