Help us kick off our 20th Anniversary Celebration!

Join us for a continental breakfast, networking opportunities and a special presentation  by Diana Bucco of The Buhl Foundation on

"The Northside Conversation- Sharing What We've Learned"

about our presenter

Diana Bucco is the Vice President of the Buhl Foundation, where her primary responsibilities are strategy formation and capacity building.  She is front and center in Buhl’s effort “to help families break the dependency that sustains generational poverty so that it can improve educational and job outlooks and quality of life on the streets.” The move of the Buhl Foundation to be more involved in the North Side springs from the foundation's historic support of the North Side, where Henry Buhl, whose estate created the foundation, lived and made his fortune as a partner in the Boggs & Buhl Department Store.

Diana has a history of leadership in the non-profit world, having been President of the Forbes Funds, Founder and Executive Director of Coro Center for Civic Leadership and Founder and Executive Director of The Mentoring Partnership of Southwestern Pennsylvania.  She also launched the Greater Pittsburgh Nonprofit Partnership (GPNP). Diana is a Trustee of Point Park University, and along with her many other board engagements, served as a member of the National Council of Nonprofits Board of Directors.

 Diana has been recognized throughout her career for her accomplishments including the Spirit of Amelia Earhart Award by Zonta and Pittsburgh Magazine's "40 Under 40," a list of rising young leaders in the Pittsburgh region.  She was recently awarded a German Marshall Fellowship.  She was also recognized by the state as one of the top ten of the “GenX generation.”
