Washington land conservation,[11] Tribute to Children monument honoring Mister Rogers,[12][13][14] Kids Zone at the Three Rivers Regatta,[15] support for the G-20 in Pittsburgh,[16] completing a bridge for bicyclists on the Great Allegheny Passage near Pittsburgh,[17] curatorial salaries for the Carnegie Museum of Natural History,[18] and matching funds to renovate the fountain at historic Point State Park.[19]
