Welcome to your Hey Pittsburgh bulletin board — a virtual space to place volunteer opportunities, fundraisers, workshops, and more things that help your neighbors.

Cheers to Help Unhoused Families

Save the date for Hearth and 11th Hour Brewing Co.’s block party on Sept. 30 from 12 to 7 p.m. with games, raffles, food truck grub, and more. Proceeds go toward supportive services for unhoused folks who are survivors of domestic violence or other trauma.

Are You a Vision, Dental, or Hearing Provider?

Mission of Mercy Pittsburgh’s annual two-day clinic on Oct. 27-28 needs more than 1,000 volunteers to provide free dental, vision, and hearing services for nearly 1,500 people. Patients will be treated on a first-come, first-serve basis at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center starting at 6 a.m. Dentists, dental hygienists, and certified dental assistants can earn three continuing education credits.

Call for Eco-Artists

The Triboro Ecodistrict and Artspiration are accepting applications for an exhibit in partnership with Contemporary Craft’s 2023 Climate Awakening Project: Crafting a Sustainable Future. Pieces should be powerful artistic responses to public health concerns, initiate conversation, and encourage social change. The exhibition will be open on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, Nov. 4-18.
