Former Allegheny College Trustee receives Baird’s Citizenship Award

Financial services firm Baird awarded former Allegheny College trustee and parent Kim Tillotson Fleming and her brother, Craig Tillotson, the 2026 Brenton H. Rupple Citizenship Award - the organization's highest honor - which recognizes outstanding dedication to community service, leadership and support, on Wednesday, May 20.

"Kim and Craig's impact is built on a generational habit of service, passed through people, places and time, and it has shaped an enduring family philosophy," said Steve Booth, Chairman and CEO of Baird, in a press release. "They've helped strengthen the fabric of their community in Pittsburgh through philanthropy, education, the arts and community leadership. And they've done it the best way: with humility, consistency and a deep belief in people."

Fleming has been a long and continuous supporter of Allegheny. In 2024, a combined $5 million was gifted to the College by Fleming, her husband Kurt and mother Carol Hefren Tillotson '54 for the modernization of Quigley Hall.
