Rivers Casino to Lend Helping Hand to Community Kitchen Pittsburgh on Aug. 28
Casino Team Members return to CKP, helping prep meals and supporting mission

PITTSBURGH — Aug. 27, 2024 — The Rivers Gives team from Rivers Casino Pittsburgh is readying for its second volunteer day this year with Community Kitchen Pittsburgh. On Wednesday, Aug. 28, 9 a.m. to noon, casino Team Members will assist CKP in preparing ready-to-go meals for community members in need.

CKP uses food as the foundation to change lives and strengthen communities, providing culinary training and opening career pathways to individuals who experience barriers to employment. CKP operates with the idea that everyone who enters its doors is inherently worthy and has the potential to reach and exceed their goals, regardless of their past or present. CKP works to provide opportunities for success and lifelong careers to its individual clients.

“Working alongside Community Kitchen Pittsburgh is always a rewarding experience,” said Dr. Rahmon Hart, director of community relations at Rivers Casino Pittsburgh. “When you can help people achieve new career and personal growth goals, which CKP does every single day, that’s a win.”

“We’re always appreciative to have support from the Rivers Gives volunteers,” said Jennifer Flanagan, executive director and founder at Community Kitchen Pittsburgh. “They arrive energized and work shoulder-to-shoulder with our team.”

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 July, Rivers Gives volunteers visited The Woodlands in Wexford to help with campus maintenance and outdoor upkeep initiatives.
