The Legacy and Future of Focus On Renewal

Since 1969, Focus On Renewal (FOR) has been a cornerstone of the McKees Rocks and Stowe Township communities, founded on a mission to strengthen families and revitalize neighborhoods through arts, education, and human services. What began as a grassroots effort has evolved into a vital hub for connection, creativity, and care—serving generations of residents through trusted programs in youth development, food security, mental health, and cultural enrichment.

FOR’s deep roots in the community are matched by its vision for the future: one where every child is nurtured, every family is supported, and every resident has access to the tools they need to thrive.

Because of YOU, lives are being changed.

Your support of Focus On Renewal is more than a gift—it's a lifeline. You help lift up children who dream of a brighter future, families striving to stay strong, and neighbors working hard to overcome hardship. You are a beacon of hope for McKees Rocks and Stowe Township.

As our community faces new challenges, your compassion matters more than ever. Families are still struggling to put food on the table. Children are still fighting to be seen, heard, and given a fair chance to succeed. But thanks to you, they don’t have to face it alone.

Your generosity opens doors to the arts, technology, and education. It fills hungry bellies, inspires young minds, and creates safe spaces where our youth can grow into the leaders of tomorrow.

This spring, we’re asking you to stand with us again. Your gift means more than resources—it means dignity, opportunity, and love. It says to every child: you matter, and we believe in you.

Please Consider giving today.

Together, we can ensure that no one in our community is left behind—and that hope remains alive for all who call this place home!
