Since 1947, the Richard King Mellon Foundation has funded visionaries with bold ideas to advance prosperity in Southwestern Pennsylvania and environmental conservation across the United States. Continuing the 10+ year collaboration, Wall-to-Wall Studios designed the Foundation’s 2024 Annual Report. The grants and PRIs disbursed by the Foundation in 2024 totaled nearly $155 million. And 52 organizations received their first-ever funding from the Foundation in 2024, growing the historical roster of Foundation grantees and program-related investments recipients to more than 1,900 organizations since its inception. The Report highlights many of the visionaries and their organization’s impact from the past year, and other notable developments. To view a PDF of the report, please visit the Foundation’s website.
