A Gift of Belief: Philanthropy and Improving Health Outcomes in Pittsburgh Speaking of Change

A Gift of Belief: Philanthropy and the Forging of Pittsburgh chronicles the rich but largely untold story of the diverse and lesser known philanthropists whose legacy shaped the region.
This season of Speaking of Change invites philanthropic practitioners and community leaders to comment on the book's themes and draw parallels and lessons to inform current practice.
Book editor Kathy Buechel sits down with chapter author Andrew Simpson of Duquesne University. Andrew and Kathy unpack how philanthropists found niches of opportunity to advance medical science and improve health outcomes in the Pittsburgh region.
