Description: The History Makers Award Dinner honors men and women whose achievements, while rooted here in Western Pennsylvania, transcend geographic bounds. These individuals represent the commitment to excellence that has defined our community and profoundly contribute to the proud history and collective heritage of our region. Proceeds from the History Makers Award Dinner, chaired by Donald J. Heberle, president of BNY Mellon of Pennsylvania and Daniel K. Fitzpatrick, president and CEO of Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware, provide support for the History Center’s educational programs, innovative exhibitions, and collections.
