Rebecca Lucore, head of sustainability and corporate social responsibility at Covestro LLC and a leading voice in Corporate America for skills-based volunteerism, has nominated Pittsburgh to be the headquarters for the “Purpose Economy” in a new Huffington Post blog.
The goal of The Purpose Economy is for people to have more purpose in their lives. Lucore explains that the beginnings of purpose started during the early years when the Industrial Economy’s greatest figures gave back and enriched this country in ways that still exist today. Pittsburgh is at the forefront of the Purpose Economy with a new kind of corporate philanthropy that leverages people’s skills and expertise to advance the greater good.
