PITTSBURGH, Feb. 19,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- F.N.B. Corporation (FNB) has
made a generous $1 million gift to
UPMC Children's Hospital Foundation's This Moment campaign,
establishing the FNB Hub for Family Support to expand
behavioral health access for families served by UPMC Children's
Hospital of Pittsburgh.
The gift was announced during the grand opening ceremony of the
new FNB Financial Center in downtown Pittsburgh.
"FNB's gift to This Moment is not only a commitment to
enhancing behavioral health access to our patients and families but
will also serve as a model for pediatric hospitals to replicate
across the country," said Rachel
Petrucelli, UPMC Children's Hospital Foundation president.
"This gift helps fund our bold vision to fuel critical advancements
in pediatric health and enables us to pioneer in the behavioral
health field nationally."
The FNB Hub for Family Support will provide the structure,
education and training to identify and sustain a pool of Family
Support Partners – individuals who have lived experience as a
parent or individual with a similar diagnosis that has successfully
navigated the behavioral health system. Family support partners
offer an understanding perspective, provide well-researched
resources, and help families to navigate care. Hiring for Family
Support Partners will begin in 2026, with FNB's gift funding three
positions with a desire to expand staffing across the hospital.
"Adding family support partners to our team of behavioral health
providers can be the difference-maker in getting families to
critical appointments, navigating resources in the community and,
ultimately, realizing happy, healthy outcomes," added
Petrucelli.
"FNB is committed to Pittsburgh's continued success. What greater
way to demonstrate our commitment than to invest in our region's
children?" said FNB Chairman, President and CEO Vincent J. Delie, Jr. "To ensure local youth are
equipped to thrive in the future, we need to provide families with
better access to behavioral health services today. We are honored
to be able to support UPMC Children's in their leading-edge
work."
This Moment is the most ambitious fundraising
campaign in UPMC Children's history with a goal to raise
$200 million to spark
transformational advancements clinical excellence, patient
experience, research and community health. With this gift from
F.N.B., the Foundation has reached 71% of its goal in funding
