<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 />

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 />
