As the Conservancy celebrates 30 years of their park systems, funding from the Essential Foundation will help to expand educational programming, invest in park improvement projects, and strengthen climate resiliency across the city&#8217;s parks.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly grateful to Peoples Natural Gas and the Essential Foundation for their continued partnership and belief in our parks,\u201d said Catherine Qureshi, President and CEO of the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy. \u201cEvery day, we see how these spaces bring people together\u00ad\u2014families, neighbors, and visitors\u00ad\u2014finding connection, joy, and lasting moments outdoors.
