The Conservancy got its start in 1932 with a major project to secure and landscape a blighted hillside along a busy corridor of the City of Pittsburgh.
We’ve grown a lot since then, and today, nine decades later, WPC continues to address new challenges throughout our region.
With your support and the help of many partners, we are greening the region's communities, protecting landscapes, streams and wildlife, and preserving and sharing Fallingwater, a World Heritage site.
Join Tom Saunders, President and CEO, as he shares the Conservancy’s major milestones in conservation, community greening and Fallingwater since our 75th anniversary in 2007.
