PITTSBURGH — Nov. 9, 2018 — Pittsburgh’s Rivers Casino announced today it will donate $40,000 to the “Fund for Victims of Terror” established by the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh. The fund will help provide support for families, first responders, medical bills, counseling and more following the Oct. 27 attack on the Tree of Life synagogue.

“Pittsburgh is Stronger than Hate,” is now being heard worldwide. The owners and operators of Rivers Casino, on behalf of its nearly 1,600 Team Members, join the community in underscoring that message.

Representatives from Rivers will continue outreach to leaders throughout the city of Pittsburgh and Squirrel Hill to further demonstrate support and to offer continued assistance. 

For more information about the Fund for Victims of Terror and other ways to help, please visit JewishPgh.org.

Rivers Casino Pittsburgh stands firmly with our families, friends and neighbors in the Jewish Community,” said General Manager Bill Keena.
