A team of 55 real and “virtual” walkers represented Pipitone Group in the 2013 Walk to End Alzheimer’s on Saturday, Oct. 5. The three-mile walk, which started at Heinz Field and toured much of the North Shore, raised nearly $235,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association’s Greater Pennsylvania Chapter. PG’s team raised $4,065, which was 119 percent of our goal, and was the third highest corporate team total and fourth highest of all 250 teams participating in the Pittsburgh Walk.
Yesterday, for the third year in a row, the entire Pipitone Group team took a day off from hard work behind our desks to get out and make a tangible difference in our community. This year, our Volunteer Day focused on three different sites around the Northside.
It’s an incredible honor to be named the first Small Business Community Hero by Direct Energy and Pittsburgh Magazine At Pipitone Group (PG), we’re celebrating our 20th Anniversary this year. That occasion and this award has prompted me to think a lot about what we’ve accomplished in the past 20 years as well as what it means to be a good corporate citizen here in the Pittsburgh region. For me and the 32 talented people who work with me, it comes down to one simple phrase: Doing Great Work with Great People.
