Steelers, Penguins and Pirates come together for Martin Luther King inspired charity event

The Steelers, Penguins and Pirates teamed up for a drive-thru and walk-up distribution event Saturday to honor the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King.

“We wanted to do something to celebrate MLK Day,” Myah Olson, community relations assistant of the Steelers, said at the Hill District location. “We thought what better way than not just team up with the other teams, but also do something in the community.”

The three teams held sites in the Hill District, North Shore and East Liberty to distribute groceries, shoes and socks to over 500 local families. More resources were also donated to 412 Food Rescue and the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank.
