Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh, Allegheny Health Network Host First ‘Humane Health Coalition’ Mobile Clinic


The mobile clinic is staffed by caregivers to provide low- to no-cost veterinary care services, as well as health care and support services for pet owners. The clinics are primarily intended for underserved individuals across the Greater Pittsburgh region who face financial hardship and other social challenges, such as housing instability and limited access to care, which make it difficult to having a furry companion.

The M.O.V.E.S mobile unit is outfitted with an anesthesia and surgical unit, an exam table, wet sink, diagnostic equipment and built-in animal cages. The unit includes ample storage for needed equipment and supplies.

From HARP, Dr. Ariella Samson, assistant executive director of veterinary care and shelter operations, Brianna Kaufmann, assistant director of medical services and a team of technicians work together to provide pet health care services including exams, vaccines and more.

“The human/animal bond is a unique connection that often develops between people and their pets. Through the Humane Health Coalition, we are leveraging that bond to help both animals and pet owners get the care they need,” said Dr. Samson. “HARP is proud to partner with the AHN Center for Inclusion Health in this initiative which we believe has the potential to impact thousands of people and their pets throughout Pittsburgh and the surrounding region.”

AHN Center for Inclusion Health nurses, social workers and community outreach staff are also onsite to conduct human health screenings. Individuals may be connected with primary care, behavioral and mental health resources and social services related to housing, transportation and employment, among others.

“We are so pleased to partner with HARP on this special program which will give the most vulnerable among us the opportunity to improve their health and wellbeing, while having a healthy pet companion by their side,” said Liz Cuevas, MD, division chief, AHN Center for Inclusion Health. “The HHC stands to serve as a shining example for how health care has the ability to transform lives.”

BitGo and Swan Announce Plans for USA’s First Bitcoin-Only Trust Company


BitGo and Swan Bitcoin today announced plans to create the first Bitcoin-only trust company, pending regulatory approval. The new joint venture will combine BitGo’s best-in-class Bitcoin cold storage technology and regulatory compliance expertise with Swan’s industry-leading capabilities in onboarding, fraud prevention, AML/KYC, and dedicated Bitcoin experts.    

BitGo CEO Mike Belshe said, “We believe the best model for the Bitcoin industry is the same battle-tested model that has been part of the US financial industry for over a century: the separation of exchange and custody. Our teams have worked closely together for nearly a year on stronger qualified custody models. Early in 2023, we recognized the opportunity to establish a Bitcoin-only custodian, combining the unique capabilities of each company and supporting the innovators that will be at the forefront of pushing Bitcoin adoption.”

“We immediately saw the vision,” said Cory Klippsten, Swan’s CEO. “For years, we’ve heard from major clients, partners, and other Bitcoin companies that they would prefer a Bitcoin-only software and services stack that is focused strictly on the best custody that leverages Bitcoin‘s unique features. It’s important to us to build a custodian without the risks of securing many altcoins within the same trust company as Bitcoin. We want to do our part to build a dedicated ecosystem for Bitcoin, separate from industry speculators, to allow for innovation in custodial offerings.”

Both BitGo and Swan are thriving in the longest-ever Bitcoin bear market. BitGo recently closed a $100 million fundraising round at a $1.75 billion valuation. Swan has already seen significant revenue growth in 2023 and projects another 50% increase by year-end to more than $75 million annualized.

Swan is committed to addressing the complex issue of custody, which it considers the most challenging issue for Bitcoin holders. In addition to the new partnership with BitGo, Swan acquired Specter Solutions in 2022 and will unveil Swan Vault, a retail-facing multisig custody solution, in October.
