CREW Pittsburgh and CREW
Pittsburgh Foundation Agree to Dissolve Formal Ties (January, 2010) |
|||
|
The Foundation will now be known as the Satchels of Caring Foundation. "The strength of the Foundation has been the commitment of CREW members both physical and financial," said Heather J. Knuth, Outreach Director of the Foundation. "We want all CREW members to know how important their participation has been, and we encourage their ongoing involvement." The approval by the CREW Pittsburgh Board is based in part on the results of a recent survey of the membership concerning the strategic goals and future direction of the chapter. The separation will enable the Satchels of Caring Foundation to broaden its management team by reaching out to committed individuals who are not CREW Pittsburgh members and who have loyally supported the Foundation over the years. It will also enable CREW Pittsburgh to focus on its core mission of advancing and empowering women within the commercial real estate industry, and to concentrate its efforts and resources on programs like UCREW and CREW Careers.
To stay in touch with the Satchels of
Caring Foundation and our new venture, please check out our new website at
www.satchelsofcaring.org for updates or call 412/201-2664. Also note
that our new Satchels of Caring Foundation mailing address is PO Box 644
Bridgeville, PA 15017. |

During the event, which is open to all children in grades 1-6, each child will have one hour to build a construction industry related project with only 100 mega blocks and up to three of the following: a rock, piece of string, piece of aluminum foil or a piece of paper. The local winner’s project will be submitted to a regional competition by March 2nd, and regional winners will later be judged in a national competition on April 30, 2011.
