Tree of Life Synagogue: Here’s how you can help

At Fort Pitt, we strive to find ways to support our community. After news broke that members of our community from the Tree of Life Synagogue were attacked last weekend, we wanted to find out how we could help those impacted by the tragedy.

Our firm has carefully chosen a variety of organizations to donate to. If you’re looking for a way to give back and help those impacted, below are some of the organizations we’ve turned to:
