About Global Links
Global Links’ recent grantmaking is defined by in-kind donations of homecare, mobility, and office goods to frontline organizations in and around Pittsburgh, with an occasional humanitarian grant for Ukraine relief. The largest recent award in the list went to The Education Partnership for $253,575 in donated supplies, followed by $204,509 to Trying Together for the same type of material support. That pattern appears across health centers, interfaith service networks, diaper distribution programs, and aging- and disability-focused providers, showing a funder built around logistics and commodity donation rather than cash-only philanthropy. Several of the listed grants show repeated support to the same intermediaries over multiple years. Chosen International Medical Assistance appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025, including grants of $44,769, $118,099, and $92,366. South Hills Interfaith Movement also recurs across the record, as do The Education Partnership and Adagio Health. Global Links’ giving reads as practical supply transfer: medical items, mobility aids, homecare goods, and office equipment routed through local nonprofits and community-serving institutions.
What Global Links Funds
Global Links supports a narrow set of practical service areas centered on donated goods. In early childhood and family support, it gave $29,492 in 2024 and $25,429 in 2025 to Diaper Distribution Event in McKeesport for donated homecare, mobility, and office items, alongside $20,383 to Western PA Diaper Bank in Pittsburgh. Health and aging services are another major lane. The foundation gave $35,000 to Jewish Association on Aging in Pittsburgh and $16,908 to Adagio Health in Monaca, each for in-kind homecare, mobility, and office support. It also directed $15,877 to East Liberty Family Health Care Center and $12,594 to Allegheny County Health Department for the same category of donated goods. Community and faith-based intermediaries are a third pattern. South Hills Interfaith Movement received $55,867 in 2025, and Aiu Highlands Family Center received $26,558, both for in-kind homecare, mobility, and office donations.
How Global Links Gives
Typical grant size is modest: the p25 is $8,014, the median is $13,629, and the p75 is $28,758. The distribution includes a few much larger in-kind awards, but most grants cluster in the lower tens of thousands. The record also shows repeat support across years rather than one-off awards, with recipients such as Chosen International Medical Assistance, South Hills Interfaith Movement, Adagio Health, The Education Partnership, and Baldwin United Presbyterian Church appearing more than once. Global Links is a foundation that primarily gives through donated goods rather than individuals or program-related investments.
