GREATER PITTSBURGH COMMUNITY FOOD BANK
StarKist® supported the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank with products, financial support and employee volunteer opportunities. In 2020, StarKist made a $25,000 financial donation for the Food Bank’s emergency-response program. This financial donation was used to create 1,250 emergency food. This year, StarKist is a sponsor of the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank “Grow Share,Thrive” campaign to help raise funds to support its community pantry initiative.
KIDS MEAL NETWORK
When summer comes each year, thousands of kids across the Greater Pittsburgh Area are left without consistent access to healthy meals. StarKist is a corporate sponsor for the Kids Meal Network. The 10-week program feeds children after school has let out and there is no longer the offering of a daily school lunch. The Kids Meal Network offers a hot meal and a snack to the young community three times a week.
RIVERLIFE
StarKist is a proud sponsor of Riverlife, a not for profit with the mission to reclaim, restore and promote Pittsburgh’s riverfronts. From volunteer opportunities to supporting the organization’s annual “Party at the Pier,” Riverlife is doing great things to make Pittsburgh a more livable city!
KOREAN WAR VETERANS OF WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA
Each year, StarKist hosts more than 100 Korean War Vets from the Pittsburgh region for a special thank you luncheon. In addition, we work with a local Boy Scout Troop to oversee the care of the Korean War Memorial on Pittsburgh’s North Shore.
TUNA FOR THE U.S. MILITARY
StarKist is honored to donate product to our soldiers who proudly serve in the United States military. Last year, tuna pouch-filled “Thank You for Your Service” mailers were sent to more than 2,000 soldiers serving our country, both in the U.S. and abroad. We estimate that more than 50,000+ soldiers have received our tuna products through this program over the years.
