Click on the above Link and donate to a good caust, “Our Troops”

In June 2008, while eating pizza at our dinner table, my fifteen year old son asked me, (a 26 year Regular and Reserve Air Force Veteran) if it would be possible to ‘send some pizzas’ to our troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Our initial goal was to raise enough funds to ship about 300 pizzas.  We contacted General David Petraeus and asked his permission to send pizzas for  4 July 2008. He answered our email within 12 hours welcoming the “Pizza Party.”  After contacting many shipping companies, DHL Express offered to ship the pizzas at no cost.  Within two weeks we raised enough funds to ship over 2,000 pizzas.  We have been at it ever since…shipping over 50,000 pizzas to date, enabling us to feed over 200,000 soldiers, which is about 400,000 slices of pizza. Your donations make this possible.  Thank you for your continued support.

 

Our Goal

Our continued goal is to provide every service member with a slice of home for either 4th of July, Veterans Day and for the Big Game.

Our immediate goal is to provide a slice of home to the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, if we are unable to meet this goal, we will send pizzas to veterans in Military and VA hospitals and local facilities as available.
