Philanthropic giving and support for rising young entrepreneurs –
inspired by Pete’s legacy.

Honoring Legacy. Empowering Futures.

The Pete Leneghan Entrepreneurship Foundation is rooted in the bold spirit of local entrepreneur Pete Leneghan. We support young business owners through philanthropic giving to local schools & entrepreneurship programs. We exist to inspire and support the next generation of entrepreneurs throughout Cleveland, Northeast Ohio, and other regions tied closely to Pete’s legacy.

Pete believed in possibility, in hard work, and in helping others grow. Today, his legacy lives on in the dreams we help fund, the businesses we help spark, and the communities we strengthen together.
