RIVERS CASINO PITTSBURGH’S RIVERS GIVES TEAM PARTNERS WITH A GIVING HEART FOR NOVEMBER SERVICE DAY
Rivers Casino Pittsburgh’s Rivers Gives Team Partners With A Giving Heart for November Service Day
Casino Team Members set to help local nonprofit with painting project
PITTSBURGH — Nov. 19, 2024 — On Wednesday, Nov. 20, Rivers Casino Pittsburgh’s Rivers Gives team will head to the Childcare and Adult Learning Center of the nonprofit A Giving Heart to lend a hand with painting and refreshing the facility.
From 9 a.m. to noon, casino volunteers will be hard at work, assisting the A Giving Heart team in transforming the center into a vibrant, welcoming environment for the children and adults it serves.
A Giving Heart is a Pittsburgh-based nonprofit organization focused on helping families with children meet some of their day-to-day challenges by providing them with essential services and a supportive community.
The primary purpose of A Giving Heart is to provide families and their children with an enriching environment where they’re supported and enabled to thrive. Services and programs offered by A Giving Heart include homework help, recreational activities, exercise, meal plans and more.
“We’re very thankful at A Giving Heart for the support we receive from engaged local partners like Rivers,” said Kristee Cammack, president and CEO of A Giving Heart. “With the casino’s volunteers joining our team for the day, we’re able to make an even stronger impact in our community.”
“The work A Giving Heart does is vital for so many Pittsburgh-area families,” said Dr. Rahmon Hart, director of community relations at Rivers Casino Pittsburgh. “We’re grateful for the opportunity to help make their space even more inviting for the children and adults who rely on these services.”
Rivers Gives is the casino’s long-running community outreach program, in which casino staffers report to work at a local nonprofit instead of the gaming floor.
In October, Rivers Gives volunteers participated in WTAE-TV’s project Bundle-Up, a program focused on shuttling community members in need to a local retailer to stock up on essential winter outerwear for the cold season ahead.
