THE HEINZ ENDOWMENTS
Mary Navarro,
Senior Program Officer
The Heinz Endowments was formed from the Howard Heinz Endowment, established in 1941, and the Vira I. Heinz Endowment, established in 1986. It is the product of a deep family commitment to the community and the common good that began with the H.J. Heinz, and which continues to this day. Our mission is to help southwestern Pennsylvania thrive as a whole community - economically, ecologically, educationally and culturally - while advancing the state of knowledge and practice in the fields in which we work. Among the largest independent philanthropic organizations in the country, the Endowments board approves an average of $60 million in grants to nonprofit organizations each year.
