Giving The Gift Of Pizza & Smiles To Children Charities

American Pizza CommunityYes, http://www.americanpizzacommunity.com is actually a thing! Pizzerias everywhere are celebrating the upcoming National Cheese Pizza Day on September 5th with the delivery of pies this week to children’s and local charities in communities around the country.  Knowing that a slice of pizza can brighten anyone’s day, members of the American Pizza Community wanted to salute the commemorative holiday by sharing the communal love of pizza with children and local communities. According to the pizza industry, pizza ranks as the top meal choice among kids year after year. 

Earlier this week, the American Pizza Community delivered dozens of cheese pizzas from Domino’s, Hunt Brothers, Papa John’s and Pizza Hut to the Nashville Chapter Boys & Girls Club in East Nashville, Tennessee.
