Food Podcast: Former TV personality joins Food Bank
On this week’s episode of the food podcast presented by Clearview Federal Credit Union on the Trib Live Podcast network, the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank introduces you to a new team member.
Ronnell Hunt is not only one of the new faces at the Food Bank, he’s a face many will be seeing in the community. Hunt is the new Community Education Specialist. The position is new position created to connect the community with information about food resource services and raise awareness about hunger in the Three Rivers Region.
“The main goal is to gather all of that information, educate the community, and share ways they can get involved,” Hunt said.
His position requires public speaking, a skill Hunt has crafted in his years formerly working at a TV news reporter.
Hunt says the job took him to different cities, but he’s excited to be working back home. “I’m born and raised in Pittsburgh, and black and gold runs through my veins!” he said.
Hunt says on top of the black and gold, he also has quite a bit coffee running through his veins too. And for good reason. When he’s not working at the Food Bank, Hunt spends his time pro wrestling.
“My pro-wrestling name is The Rev Ron Hunt!’
