Millennial Trains Project Update

August 6, 2013 Lindsay

mtp-logoTHANK YOU Pittsburgh!  A week ago I learned that there were 3 seats left on the waiting list for the Millennial Trains Project inaugural trip.  I sent an email to the IheartPGH email list asking for help to raise the $5000 needed to get a seat on the train.

I am honored to have the support of over 90 Pittsburgh lovers.  In less than 36, the Pittsburgh lovers in this city an all across the country, helped me meet the fundraising goal.

Tomorrow, yes tomorrow! I head to California and the trip starts Thursday morning.

Pittsburgh Meet-Ups from Coast to Coast

I’ve got events planned for each stop and I need your help to reach out to your fellow Pittsburghers in San Francisco, Denver, Omaha, Chicago and Pittsburgh!  I am still working on locations (ideally a Steelers bar or a business owned by a Pittsburgher) for each meetup but I’m hoping to meet with and talk to as many Pittsburghers as possible.
