Accomplishments & Awards

Accomplishments

  • 2010 was the most successful year yet for our major annual fundraising event, the UPMC Health Plan & Rainbow Kitchen Community Services W.A.R. (Walk And Ride) Against Hunger.  The W.A.R. Against Hunger is a walk and bicycle ride event which also promotes healthy lifestyle choices.
  • Rainbow Kitchen Community Services was honored to be selected as a Champion in Action by Citizens Bank and WPXI-TV, and proud to be chosen as the 2006 Steel Valley Chamber of Commerce Organization of the Year. Rainbow Kitchen has also been awarded the United Way Certificate of Management Excellence.
  • Following a successful capital campaign, Rainbow Kitchen purchased, renovated, and relocated to a facility which was designed for improved food storage, preparation, and distribution capacity; increased ability to provide case management and related services in a confidential setting; a more pleasant dining environment; and sufficient space to host community meetings, as well as to accommodate the many additional services we provide.
