Pittsburgh's 50 Finest - 8/20/09

It was a particularly fine Thursday night in the city when Pittsburgh’s 50 Finest were honored at the Omni William Penn Hotel. After a summer of fundraising for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, this group of young, single professionals celebrated their efforts. Each participant was asked to hit a fundraising minimum of $2,500 for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, for which 90 cents of every dollar raised goes directly to funding research and care programs. Tucker Veenis, associate director for Three Rivers Equity Management, was named this year’s top earner, raising more than $13,000 all on his own! Photography by Megan Wylie
