<strong>Pennsylvania</strong> Humanities Council – The <strong>Pennsylvania</strong><br />

Humanities Council, a nonprofit organization, inspires<br />

individuals to enjoy and share a life of learning enriched by<br />

human experience across time and around the world. Through<br />

programs and <strong>pa</strong>rtnerships, PHC fosters the sharing of stories<br />

and ideas—to increase understanding and a large vision of<br />

human life, community and possibility.<br />

Pew Charitable Trusts – The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven<br />

by the power of knowledge to solve today’s most challenging<br />

problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to<br />

improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic<br />

life.<br />

Pew has three overarching areas of interest:<br />

• Improving public policy. Pew studies and promotes<br />

non<strong>pa</strong>rtisan policy solutions for pressing and emerging<br />

problems affecting the American public and the global<br />

community.<br />

• Informing the public. The Pew Research Center, a<br />

Washington-based subsidiary, is home to most of our<br />

information initiatives. It uses im<strong>pa</strong>rtial, fact-based publicopinion<br />

polling and other research tools to track important<br />

issues and trends.<br />

• Stimulating civic life. Pew supports national initiatives<br />

that encourage civic <strong>pa</strong>rtici<strong>pa</strong>tion. In our hometown of<br />

Philadelphia, Pew supports organizations that create a<br />

thriving arts and culture community and institutions that<br />

enhance the well-being of the region’s neediest citizens.<br />
