Campaign aims to supply Durham healthcare workers with meals through online donation partnerships

The Durham Bulls has announced the launch of a food-based program to help supply meals to some of our community’s essential employees. The program, in conjunction with US Foods, will serve local healthcare workers through online donation platforms.

The Bulls are excited to work with two of Durham’s favorite establishments and long-time local sponsors in Pie Pushers and LocoPops to provide meals for employees at Duke Health. As US Foods partners, these sponsors will be able to use their phone and online ordering platforms to receive donations from customers that will be relayed to these healthcare workers in the form of meals delivered to their place of work. Operating hours and procedures for both of these establishments have changed in light of the current business restrictions, but they do remain open for delivery and curbside pick-up.

Additional details on how to contribute to this program can be found on both the Pie Pushers and LocoPops online menus, as well as on the Durham Bulls community page (www.milb.com/durham/community/pizza-and-paletas). With the start of the Minor League Baseball season postponed indefinitely, the Bulls are proud to be able to use their platform to support our community in this time of need. We encourage everyone to follow our website and social channels for regular updates on our latest community-based initiatives.
