WANNA GO FOR A RIDE? Whereas we’re at it, I wish to straight solicit your ideas on a pizza business occasion my writer and I want to make occur on an annual foundation.
Just a few of us within the Pizza At the moment workplace are actually into biking. Since October is Nationwide Pizza Month in addition to Nationwide Breast Most cancers Consciousness Month, I used to be pondering Pizza At the moment ought to arrange a big group experience from one main metropolis to the following. We might pair with a corporation such because the American Most cancers Society or the Susan G. Komen Breast Most cancers Basis and use the experience to boost cash for the chosen charity. Pizzerias nationwide could be inspired to make a donation (maybe a share of gross sales on a given day?). Pizzerias alongside the route we cycle could be inspired to affix in by having their staff cycle alongside, settle for donations from the general public, and many others. I do know from previous fundraising expertise that the native chapter of the chosen charity will assist any pizzeria that desires to be concerned by offering advertising and marketing for the occasion. They’ll present press releases and possibly even signage, flyers, and many others. if warranted.
It could be a method the pizza business might give again to society and make a distinction on a significant stage.
October isn’t the one month we might do that experience sooner or later. Breast most cancers isn’t the one trigger we might work to assist. These are my ideas, however I’m open to recommendations. • What charity ought to we work to assist?
• The place ought to we do the experience?
Portland to Seattle? Louisville to Chicago? Los Angeles to San Diego? Madison to Minneapolis? St. Louis to Kansas Metropolis? Inform me in your first letter to the editor.
