Homestead’s historic St. Mary Magdalene Church now holds Dragon’s Den, a bold, 501(c)(3) non-profit providing transformative learning environments through the use of a state-of-the-art, two-level therapeutic and educational challenge course, including a 160-foot zipline and 20-foot climbing wall. Our course is designed to engage youth of diverse backgrounds and abilities to overcome challenges in themselves, their communities, and the world.
We are excited to say we are listed as a 2021 top-rated nonprofit through Great Nonprofits and received the 2022 Gold Seal of Transparency from Candid.org!
We believe in the preservation of our history, architecture, and past as an inspiration to build proud, strong, and community-oriented young adults.
Our Board
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
– Margaret Mead
The Dragon’s Den’s Board is supported by a cadre of enthusiastic trustees who believe the world and our communities can be improved by a small group of thoughtful committed citizens. The Board members have a variety of backgrounds and abilities, including corporate CEOs, educators, engineers, and marketing, sales, accounting, and public relations professionals. Their passion is using their abilities and determination to make the Dragon’s Den dream a reality – a beacon of what is possible in Allegheny County and beyond.
