McAuley Ministries, the foundation arm of Pittsburgh Mercy, is donating $2.3 million to 18 non-profit organizations in Pittsburgh. The organizations concentrate their efforts in the Hill District, Uptown Pittsburgh, and West Oakland -- three areas that are very important to Pittsburgh Mercy which was founded by the Sisters of Mercy in those sections of Pittsburgh. Marisol Valentin, the executive director of McAuley Ministries, joined The Rick Dayton Show to talk about the grant money and where it's going and how it will help many people and families around Pittsburgh.
