Empowering individuals. Transforming communities.

Productive Pittsburgh is a citywide movement that believes in giving a hand up, instead of a handout, to the unhoused population.  We know that to truly make a difference, we need to address the root of the problems leading to their situation and have vowed to do better. Through our Gold Card, we offer individuals easy access to meals, shelter, and tangible tools to help them move forward with their lives. We do so by connecting those in need with our network of nonprofits providing the services that influence lasting, positive change.  We are backed by corporate partners, businesses, educators, leaders, and everyday citizens who care about our city and want to make a better place for all of us because when people thrive, communities thrive.
