October 9, 2018 Lindsay

327 N NegleyPlease join us for a community workshop to envision the future of 327 North Negley. This synagogue and school have been vacant for many years.

March Madness and April PULSEations

April 10, 2013 Lindsay

Back in March, a group of Pittsburgh bloggers organized a March Madness bracket challenge – we all agreed that each blog would write a post about the winning bloggers favorite nonprofit organization.

PULSE stands for Pittsburgh Urban Leadership Service Experience.  … Read the rest
