Tenth Annual
40 Under 40
2008 Nomination Form

PITTSBURGH magazine and PUMP sponsor the 40 Under 40 program with the goal of recognizing 40 people under the age of 40 who are committed to shaping our region and making it a better place for everyone.

Over the past nine years, we have honored a vast array of people - ranging from corporate CEOs to nonprofit volunteers, from people working behind the scenes to those on the front lines.

40 Under 40 is all about a commitment to the region. If you know someone who deserves to be honored, be sure to submit his or her name for consideration. The deadline for nominations is June 6, 2008.
