Each year, the Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh gathers community members, leaders, partners, and supporters to celebrate achievements and envision the road ahead.
Throughout the year, the Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh hosts a series of signature events that bring our community together to collaborate, fundraise, and advance our mission of economic self-reliance, parity, power, and civil rights.
These events serve as moments to highlight the work we do, recognize outstanding partners, and inspire collective action across the region.
The State of Black Pittsburgh is a vital community forum focused on addressing pressing issues impacting African Americans in the region. Through panel discussions, research presentations, and community conversations, this event highlights challenges, elevates solutions, and strengthens efforts toward equity and justice.

Local faith communities come together to recognize the spiritual, economic, and social foundations that unite our work.
