Seed Fund: Ten Years of Giving Cultivates Pittsburgh Projects from the Editorial Board of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"With proper tending, a tiny sprout can develop into a fruitful plant. That's the philosophy behind Pittsburgh's Sprout Fund, and it is true of the organization itself. The fund is celebrating its 10th anniversary of providing small but significant grants to foster artistic and environmental initiatives, serving its mission of making the region a better place to live, work, play and raise families. The Sprout Fund's first grant was $900 for a temporary art gallery Downtown and, since then, it has seeded 450 projects at a total value of $4 million."
