The Barnett Family Fund was established with a charitable gift from Beatrice K. Barnett, a resident of Squirrel Hill, who died in 1997 at the age of 86. The fund supports family planning and reproductive health care. In the years since its creation, the fund has followed Barnett’s wishes by providing grants to organizations that expand access to reproductive health care and health education in western Pennsylvania. The fund continues to be supported by members of the Barnett family.
