S&T Bank recently made a $20,000 donation as a participant in this year’s WDVE iHeartMedia Pittsburgh fundraiser in support of UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. This is the second year in a row that the Bank has donated $20,000 to this important cause.

In support of this year’s fundraiser, S&T pledged to donate money during August as customers opened Smart Start Banking accounts which are designed for individuals ages 14-24 who want to begin building a solid foundation in the world of personal finance while gaining early money management skills. S&T’s partnership with iHeartMedia and the donation to Children’s Hospital go hand in hand with the Bank’s people-forward purpose, demonstrating a desire to help young people learn healthy money habits and build long-term financial confidence.

“This donation is another way that we are making people our purpose at S&T Bank,” said Chief Executive Officer, Chris McComish. “It’s a compelling opportunity to live out our purpose and help build a better future for customers and communities in and around Pittsburgh. It’s even more special when we have a positive impact on the lives of children and their families.”

iHeartMedia Pittsburgh Market President, Tim Mcaleer, stated, “The care these children and their families receive depends on funding from WDVE sponsors and listeners, which supports the essential programming and equipment needed for the best treatment. We’re delighted to have S&T Bank’s unwavering support for the second year and its commitment to many more. The Bank’s ongoing contributions enable Child Life Specialists, art and music therapy, holiday programs, and year-round birthday celebrations for our patients. Partners like S&T Bank make these miracles happen.”

UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, regionally, nationally, and globally, is a leader in the treatment of childhood conditions and diseases, a pioneer in the development of new and improved therapies, and a top educator of the next generation of pediatricians and pediatric subspecialists.
