Pittsburgh Steelers Community Relations Programs:
The Pittsburgh Steelers are conceited to be a part of the western Pennsylvania community. The organization's strong promise to this area dates back to 1933 when Arthur J. Rooney first founded the team. Pittsburgh Steelers chairman Dan Rooney and President Art Rooney II are known as two of the most active NFL owners and are some of Pittsburgh's most concerned executives in civic affairs. Pittsburgh Steelers players, coaches and front office staff are concerned in appearances, altruistic donations and outreach programs with non-profit and community groups. It's our way of giving back to the society that has given us so much for more than 70 years!

The Pittsburgh Steelers provides as voluntary chairs of this Pennsylvania-based math program. The 24® game is a ground-breaking tool that reinforces mental mathematics, difficulty solving, prototype sensing, attentiveness and critical thinking.
