Penguins, Fox's donate pizza to community centers
Pittsburgh Penguins forwards Teddy Blueger and Sam Lafferty, goaltender Tristan Jarry and defenseman John Marino, along with Fox’s Pizza Den, donated 1,000 personal pizzas to five area community centers Friday.
Northview Heights Housing on the North Side, the Boys & Girls Club of Western Pennsylvania in McKees Rocks, the Turtle Creek Ambulance Station, the Tarentum Marina and White Lily Baptist Church in Chartiers City received the donations.
The players purchased 500 pizzas, and the chain matched that total with a donation.
According to a release from the team, “the goal was to help feed children and their families who normally rely on schools and community pantries for some of their meals.”
