Best Buddies in Pennsylvania extends our heartfelt gratitude to Clearview Federal Credit Union for being the presenting sponsor of the 2025 Best Buddies Friendship Ball in Pittsburgh! The night was truly magical, filled with unforgettable moments of laughter, dancing, and, most importantly, friendship. It was a celebration that brought together people of all backgrounds, united by the shared values of kindness, inclusion, and connection.

Thanks to Clearview’s generous support, we were able to bring together over 150 students from high school and college chapters, who gathered at the University of Pittsburgh for a memorable evening. The energy in the room was electric as attendees enjoyed airbrush tattoos, a photo booth, a cookie table, and, of course, plenty of dancing. It was a night where everyone, regardless of ability, felt included, valued, and celebrated—truly embodying the mission of Best Buddies.

We are also incredibly proud to recognize Clearview’s unwavering commitment to inclusion. We were honored to present them with the Best Buddies Champion of Inclusion Award for their dedication to making a positive and lasting impact in the community. Clearview’s employees, who volunteered their time to ensure the event was a success, went above and beyond in making sure every detail was perfect and that all attendees had a fantastic experience.

Together, we are creating a more inclusive and welcoming world for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). With Clearview’s steadfast support, we continue to move closer to our goal of fostering understanding, friendship, and opportunity for individuals with IDD.

We look forward to continuing our partnership with Clearview and are excited about the future of our inclusive community. Thank you again for making the 2025 Best Buddies Friendship Ball a night to remember!!
