Founded in 1974, The Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh provides services for victims of intimate partner violence, and is recognized as being among the first centers for domestic violence to be established in the United States. “I am thrilled to have an inspiring group like Pittsburgh Women’s Mastermind support the Center,” said Nicole Molinaro, President and CEO of the Center. “It’s an honor to have women in business and women with entrepreneurial spirit get involved to make a positive difference in the lives of survivors of intimate partner violence.”
Linda Jo Thornberg, President of the Pittsburgh Business Show, acknowledged the extraordinary impact the Center has on social change in the region and the importance of advocating its efforts. “We are excited to be able to
support
the Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh,” said Thornberg. “Our goal is to engage with community organizations such as this so that we can increase awareness and help support our local communities as much as possible. We are looking forward to growing this connection and building awareness for something that is so needed in the Pittsburgh area.”
