And the development of a former steel mill site called Almono into a sustainable community is a transformation story that’s still being told. Board of Directors The Heinz Endowments was formed from the Howard Heinz Endowment, established in 1941, and the Vira I. Heinz Endowment, established in 1986. It is the product of a deep family commitment André T. Heinz to community and the common good that began with H.J. Heinz, and that continues to this day. Chairman The Endowments is based in Pittsburgh, where we use our region as a laboratory for the development of solutions to challenges that are national in scope. Although the majority of our Teresa Heinz giving is concentrated within southwestern Pennsylvania, we work wherever necessary, including Chair Emeritus state wide and nationally, to fulfill our mission. James M. Walton That mission is to help our region thrive as a whole community—economically, ecologically, Vice Chairman Emeritus educationally and culturally—while advancing the state of knowledge and practice in the fields in which we work. Our fields of emphasis include philanthropy in general and the disciplines Christopher D.

    The Buhl Foundation . Annual Report by the President July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018 . HENRY BUHL, JR. 1848-1927 . By his will Henry Buhl Jr. created The Buhl Foundation and dedicated it to “charitable, educational, and public uses and purposes,” as a memorial to his beloved wife, Louise C. Buhl. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania BOARD OF DIRECTORS PETER F. MATHIESON, Chair SALEEM H. GHUBRIL, Vice Chair KIM TILLOTSON FLEMING, Secretary and Treasurer QUINTIN B. BULLOCK ANNE LEWIS LARA E. WASHINGTON OFFICERS DIANA A. BUCCO, President STAFF DANIEL M. BARRETT, Program Officer (as of September 11, 2017) AMBER J. FARR, Director, One Northside BETHANY R. HESTER, Administrative Assistant LINDA J. WEAVER, Office Manager HENRY BUHL, JR. CHAIR FOR CIVIC LEADERSHIP FREDERICK W. THIEMAN Centre City Tower, Suite 2300 650 Smithfield Street Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222 Phone: (412) 566-2711 Fax: (412) 566-2714 Email: [email protected] From the Desk of the President, This has been a year of significant growth and evolution for the Buhl Foundation. We are in the midst shifting the Foundation’s resources toward a geographic focus on the Northside of Pittsburgh. What is apparent, is that a place-based focus is not just about geography, but rather a methodology or grantmaking philosophy. One that is anchored in data and driven by the feedback and input of the residents whose lives we aspire to support. The Buhl Foundation staff have aspired to work through an imbedded philanthropy model that is anchored in mutual respect and partnership among the residents of a community. Through this model, the Buhl foundation is working to leverage human and financial capital, connect a neighborhood to opportunity and shift from funding programs to investing in work that will be catalytic in creating change at the household, community and systemic level.
