淎s many across the country are facing intense hardship, PNC charitable focus has been directed at meeting basic needs and providing essential relief in the communities we serve, said Jim Hoehn, PNC regional president in Central Pennsylvania. 淭hat why we are glad to repurpose our funding for 黑料社区 graduation ceremony toward combating food insecurity among students, an issue that has been heightened recently as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
