&pizza;, a distinctive pizza concept rooted in mission-driven values and community engagement, is marking Pride Month with a meaningful initiative in collaboration with SMYAL — also known as Supporting and Mentoring Youth Advocates and Leaders. &pizza worked to support LGBTQ youth across the Washington, D.C., metropolitan region by donating 20% of sales from its D.C., Maryland, and Virginia locations on June 10th to SMYAL. In addition to the fundraising campaign, &pizza also introduced Cinna-Knots, a sweet variation of the brand's popular Knots. One dollar from each Cinna-Knots purchase is going toward SMYAL.
CEO Mike Burns emphasized &pizza's dedication to the community: "We are excited to partner with SMYAL this month to support and uplift LGBTQ youth in the DMV area. At &pizza, we believe in the power of unity and making a difference. This partnership not only allows us to give back but also aligns with our core values of inclusivity and support for all our fans."
