"In recent months, business and nonprofit groups have ramped up attempts to increase the city's population overall by tapping into the immigrant pool. On Thursday, The Pittsburgh Promise -- the nonprofit that was established to lure and retain students to Pittsburgh Public Schools -- joined that effort with a targeted sales pitch. The program, which extends the possibility of college scholarships worth as much as $40,000 to graduates of city public schools and charters, kicked off a campaign to make sure legal immigrants within a 300-mile radius of Pittsburgh are aware of the Promise scholarships."
