CommuniTech enjoys partnering with organizations and associations, especially when it means giving something back to the community.

That’s why CommuniTech was a proud sponsor of the “Here’s My Story VI” fundraiser, held November 12, 2003 at the Pittsburgh Steelers Training Complex in the Southside.

The series brings together a select group of area entrepreneurs and business executives, along with past and present athletes, staff, and affiliates of the Pittsburgh Steelers, for networking and fundraising as a key component of the player’s development effort.

Last year’s event benefited Marvel Smith’s “Block & Tackle Foundation,” which is an affiliate of the National Heritage Foundation. Each “Here’s My Story” event features a prominent local executive and a Steelers player, alumni, or staff member, who tell stories about their successes, their failures, and lessons they’ve learned – whether on the field or behind a desk.

The “Here’s My Story VI” event featured speakers Dan Rooney, chairman of the Steelers, and Sean McDonald of Precision Therapeutics.

“The Steelers’ Player Development program seeks to challenge players to be lifelong learners while pursuing continuous improvements with career development, social interaction, family relations, and personal growth during and beyond their NFL careers,” said Anthony Griggs, director of player development for the Pittsburgh Steelers. “As a result, this enables them to be the best football players needed to be a part of our team – both on and off the field.”
