Estimates say the city of Pittsburgh has a shortage of approximately 27,000 units of affordable housing. Today, UPMC's Center for Social Impact, The Heinz Endowments and The Henry Hill Foundation have teamed together to help solve the problem. The three giants are providing a pool of $11 million in lending capital for developers to create or retain affordable properties. Ray Prushnok, an AVP with UPMC was a guest on the Rick Dayton Show to talk about the initiative.
