Public Private Partnership

 December 20, 2017

 Whereas, Pennsylvania is fortunate in having an abundance of world-class private sector resources and leaders who desire to better their communities and the commonwealth; and

 Whereas, the commonwealth's economic development goals include developing an innovation-driven economy, ensuring that all Pennsylvania's children can achieve their full potential through access to a first-class education, increasing wealth-generating job opportunities for all citizens, encouraging small business growth, significantly reducing the burdens government places on businesses and citizens, expanding Pennsylvania-based business export opportunities, and harnessing Pennsylvania's energy potential; and

 Whereas, successful, sustainable economic and workforce development is dependent upon a solid educational system that prepares students to compete in a global economy, to ensure an improved quality of life for Pennsylvania's people, its workforce and communities; and

 Whereas, in the last three years, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has increased its investment in early learning, development, and education programs, and has made steady progress to assure that more children receive quality early learning and development services; and

 Whereas, the input, perspective, and support of business leaders is essential to the development of a successful workforce and economic development system; and

 Whereas, it is essential to foster public and private sector investment to continue economic growth, which can be accomplished by addressing the needs of and challenges faced by all Pennsylvanians, including those with children, to assure the commonwealth's edge in the national and global marketplace; and

 Whereas, the use of a public private partnership to convene business, workforce, and economic development leaders to provide input, perspective, and resources is essential to achieving our collective goals; and

 Whereas, the use of a public private partnership to bring business, government, community, and education leaders together is essential to accomplishing these goals; and

 Whereas, Team Pennsylvania Foundation is a dynamic resource for Pennsylvania, created as a nonprofit corporation incorporated in 1997, under 15 Pa.C.S. Subpart C (relating to Nonprofit Corporation Law of 1988), to assist the commonwealth in increasing job growth, retention and creation within Pennsylvania.

 Now, Therefore, I, Tom Wolf, Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and other laws, do hereby recognize, affirm and celebrate the economic development partnership between the commonwealth and the Team Pennsylvania Foundation.
