Scholarship winners grateful for the opportunity

For three recent high school graduates, coming to Steelers training camp wasn't something they imagined just months ago.

But today, they were there with a guest, as recipients of the Art Rooney Scholarship for 2025, enjoying a special luncheon with Steelers personnel and then watching practice from the sidelines.

The Art Rooney Scholarship Fund was established in memory of the late founder of the Steelers, who died in August of 1988 after living most of his life on the North Side. The scholarship annually provides a grant to a North Catholic High School student and funds the Pittsburgh Promise scholarships for two students graduating from Pittsburgh high schools who are residents of the North Side. Since its inception, the scholarship has awarded grants to more than 90 local students.
