The Sunday Business Page

CBS2-Pittsburgh-6:30 a.m.

THIS SUNDAY@6:30AM., ON KDKA-TV’S  “THE SUNDAY BUSINESS PAGE”, WITH KDKA-TV’S MONEY & POLITICS EDITOR JON DELANO:

On this week’s program:

The financial health of the auto industry – through the eyes of a Ford Motor Company Vice-President – with deep roots, in Southwestern Pennsylvania:

Watch for Jon Delano’s special interview with Mark LaNeve – Vice-President of U.S. Marketing, Sales, & Service – for Ford – and a native, of Beaver Falls.

Then, a preview of next  Wednesday’s critical “Feed the Kids Summer Telethon” – which will air, during KDKA-TV programming, from 4:00pm.-8:00pm., with special, live reports, during our broadcasts.

Here’s the reason, for concern:

The Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank provides “adequate” food – in the form of school lunches – for children, in eleven counties.

But – with school about to adjourn, for the summer, how will those children receive the nutrition, that they need?  That could translate to a loss of as much as eight and a half-million meals!

The Food Bank’s Chief Advancement Officer — Traci Weatherford-Brown – talks with Jon Delano, about what’s at stake – and how you can help.

(The “Feed the Kids Summer Telethon” is a result of a partnership between the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank, KDKA-TV, Citizens Bank, and Giant Eagle.)

Finally, we’ll tell you why the pending retirement of thousands of “baby boomers”, in the local construction industry – could mean future economic opportunity, for students.

Jeff Nobers – Executive Director of the Builders Guild of Western Pennsylvania – and Jack Ramage – Executive Director of the Masters Builders Association of Western Pennsylvania – have important information, on valuable, free training programs, for qualified students –who want a career that is both financially  and professionally fulfilling.

Find out , about this unusual, labor-management partnership.

Please join Jon Delano – Sunday morning@6:30AM. – for “The Sunday Business Page”, on KDKA-TV!
