PITTSBURGH INDIAN COMMUNITY AND FRIENDS

PIC5K: Run, have fun and help someone!

Give back to your Greater Pittsburgh Community!

Our Initiatives

  1. Registered Non Profits that agree to use 100% of the investment on programs and not overhead are selected

  2. Last 10 years, 100% of your donations have gone to non-profits as event costs were covered by core volunteers

  3. Homelessness is the focus for this three year cycle (2023-2025)

  4. Homeless Children Education Fund, Jubilee Kitchen and Energy Innovation Center Institute are the non-profits that we will invest in this year

  5. Given over $661,000 to local non-profits to date...Please join us again this year and lets help people in or near homelessness!

Our Mission

Bring together the diverse Indian community and their Friends living in the Greater Pittsburgh region and giving back to our inclusive community in the areas of education, homelessness, education and first responders

  • Make a difference in the region and the larger community that we are a part of.

  • Give back to the community that a lot of us have benefited from in many ways.

  • Leave a legacy in the community that our children and grandchildren will continue to be a part of.

  • Think of it as Community Investment that will bear fruit for a long time to come in many ways! 

Education

Education was the focus in the previous three year investment cycle (2020-2022). Stem Coding Lab, Neighborhood School and Ruth's Way were the partners we invested in. We even partnered with Boy's and Girls Club of Western Pennsylvania and LL Bean to provide Kayak and Paddle Board lessons to children who have never experienced it and in some cases first time at a park!

Block by block!

Just like a community is changed block by block and brick by brick, lives are changed permanently by investing steadily and consistently year after year! We do not want to just depend on a few that give a lot when they can but on many who can give an impactful little  (or a lot!)  year after year!  Let us work together and (re)build our community intentionally. Please donate annually or subscribe monthly!
