🔑 Today at 11:30 AM, Pittsburgh celebrates lives of service and impact!
The City of Pittsburgh’s annual Keys to the City ceremony will be held today on the 5th Floor of the City-County Building, honoring a remarkable group of leaders whose work has shaped and uplifted the city across generations.
This year’s honorees represent a breadth of Pittsburgh’s civic, cultural, and social legacy. Sam Clancy, Roger Humphries, Judge Kim Clark, Dr. Jim Withers, Professor David Harris, and Retired Judge Cynthia A. Baldwin are set to be recognized for their long-standing service and contributions to the city’s neighborhoods, institutions, and public life.
The ceremony will also include the formal presentation of keys to two previously honored figures, Sala Udin and Doris Carson Williams. Both have played pivotal roles in strengthening Pittsburgh’s communities. Udin’s decades of advocacy and public leadership continue to influence the city’s path toward justice and equity. Williams’ longstanding commitment to small business development expanded opportunities for Black entrepreneurs and strengthened economic pathways across the region.
Mayor Ed Gainey will deliver remarks honoring each recipient and reflecting on the importance of service, leadership, and community stewardship in shaping Pittsburgh’s future.
