A BIG thanks to all who supported the inaugural "Mayor's Cup Food Challenge."
Generous fans attending the July 27/28 Mayor's Cup Championship Games at PNC donated nearly a TON (1,820 pounds) of non-perishable food along with $1,000 in cash to the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank!
The $1,000 cash translated into $5,000 in food purchases to assist our neighbors in need.
