2014 Volunteer of the Year
We like to think that volunteering and giving back to our communities, guests, and neighbors is a part of our DNA. We know the importance and value of taking care of people both inside and outside our facilities.
We encourage our team members to be active volunteers in their neighborhoods, and do what we can to support them in those endeavors. Because volunteers give their time and energy and ask nothing in return, we take the months of April and May to recognize those that have gone above and beyond the call of duty.
From over 1,000 team members who volunteered over 36,000 hours of their time in 2014, we’re proud to announce that this year’s Eat’n Park Hospitality Group Volunteer of the Year is Tim H.!
Tim is part of our Parkhust Division, and is a line cook at Google, where he has been a team member for 2.5 years. Tim invests hundreds of hours annually to helping people and animals in need. His hands-on (and often behind the scenes) work results in an immediate positive impact: he volunteers with several animal rescue and rehabilitation programs, he cooks at shelters, and outreaches to homeless individuals to help meet their most urgent needs. Tim is passionate about volunteering because he feels he’s fortunate enough to have the ability and means to do so.
In Tim’s honor, Eat’n Park Hospitality Group will be donating $3,000 to the Women’s Center and Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh. Founded in 1974 by Ellen Berliner and Anne Steytler, Women's Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh (WC&S) was one of the first six shelters in the United States for battered women. Since its inception WC&S has been at the forefront of the Battered Women's Movement, creating and implementing innovative and effective programming aimed at preventing domestic violence and providing services to domestic violence victims.
Please join us in congratulating Tim and our other finalists for their extensive efforts in the community!

At Eat’n Park Hospitality Group, we’ve long been a partner of the United Way, with team members generously donating to our annual campaign to support critical community needs.
With Mother’s Day right around the corner, we’re teaming up on the United Way of Allegheny County’s “Love Mom” campaign – and you can help!

With Mother’s Day right around the corner, we’re teaming up on the United Way of Allegheny County’s “Love Mom” campaign – and you can help!
Now through May 13, all donors who contribute to the campaign through the text-to-give program will receive a free Smiley Cookie at Eat’n Park.
How? Simple:
- Text "UnitedforWomen" to 51555 to make your donation.
- You'll receive a confirmation email; just print & bring it to Eat'n Park by May 17 to enjoy your free Smiley Cookie!
United for Women helps those facing financial crises due to unexpected life events such as layoffs, accidents, divorce, a health crisis, or death of a spouse – all of which can send vulnerable women spiraling into poverty. United for Women provides a bridge to help get them back on their feet.
Lisa’s Story
Lisa was on her way to work on August 19, 2014 when a careless driver smashed into the back of her car.
Lisa’s recovery from her injuries, including a severe concussion and memory loss, took four months. “I was doing so well,” she says, “and then this man turned my life upside down.”
While she healed Lisa was isolated, depressed, and “had absolutely no income”. She was close to homelessness when she reached out to a United for Women-funded program that helps women recover from an unexpected first-time financial crisis. The program brought Lisa’s rent and utility bills up to date and linked her to longer term employment supports. By Christmas, she had a new job.
Lisa had felt so alone, but after connecting with the program she felt blessed. Her accident gave her clarity about how quickly life can change. “I learned so much about the value of things I always took for granted. I’m getting better; not everyone can say that.” United for Women gave Lisa “friendship, someone who understood and helped me get my life back.” Lisa plans to volunteer to assist other women in similar situations. “These programs are so needed,” she says.
