Celebrating 5 Years of BUILD Pittsburgh
In 2021, BUILD Pittsburgh launched its first pilot at McKeesport Area Senior High School, serving just 50 students. Now, BUILD Pittsburgh has grown to serve more than 300 students annually in BUILD partner classrooms, with thousands more students engaging in our free resources throughout the region.

To celebrate 5 years of BUILD’s impact in Pittsburgh, we invite you to join us in five areas of impact to support student entrepreneurs and help BUILD Pittsburgh prepare to grow our impact in the next five years!

As usual, our alumni absolutely stole the show. Monique, Mohamed, & Marylin’s stories brought BUILD to life and their questions and convos with Gently Soap founder and Shark Tank winner Kristen Dunning were inspiring, thoughtful, and powerful.
Monique, Mohamed & Marylin share their stories.
Thanks to amazing generosity from across the country we made it to 95% of our goal with $4,760 raised. There’s still time to help us hit $5,000.
Through the end of the year, we will continue to run our How Will You BUILD? giving campaign – look out for our annual friendly competition between regions to see who can raise the most! New York is currently in the lead – but it’s still anyone’s game! Give now.

From student pitches to board member fundraisers, from small gifts to large ones, every single contribution built something bigger: a community of opportunity.
