Vocelli Pizza's Meaningful Community Initiative to Empower Youth
Vocelli Pizza's New Community Initiative
Vocelli Pizza is excited to launch a remarkable initiative called Pizza with Purpose in collaboration with The Jerome Bettis "Bus Stops Here" Foundation. This initiative reflects both organizations' dedication to fostering community, equity, and opportunity.
Supporting Underserved Youth
Established in 1997 by renowned Super Bowl Champion Jerome Bettis, The Jerome Bettis "Bus Stops Here" Foundation aims to empower underserved youth through education and mentorship. Their primary focus is on enhancing digital literacy among the younger generation, ensuring they are equipped for the rapidly evolving digital landscape.
Jerome Bettis' Vision
Jerome Bettis shared, "When I started The Bus Stops Here Foundation, the goal was simple: to give kids a chance—an opportunity to dream, to learn, and to thrive. Partnering with Vocelli Pizza brings that mission into more homes, neighborhoods, and futures." This partnership not only provides financial support but amplifies the foundation's message and mission throughout the community.
Pizza with Purpose Initiative
Through Pizza with Purpose, proceeds will directly benefit the foundation’s primary program, Jerome Bettis' CyberBus. This unique program aims to bridge the digital divide by facilitating access to computer science education for K-8 students, alongside business development opportunities for their families.
Engaging with the Community
Moreover, the collaboration goes beyond funding. Volunteers from Vocelli Pizza will actively engage with students and their families, presenting not just delicious pizza but also a chance to make a meaningful impact in their lives. It’s an opportunity for team members to contribute positively to their communities.
A Message from the CEO
Toni Bianco, CEO of Vocelli Pizza, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, "This partnership is truly exciting for Vocelli. As a brand born and bred in Pittsburgh, it's an honor to support Jerome Bettis and the incredible work his foundation is doing. From our in-store fundraising efforts to our involvement in their community events like the annual Christmas Drive, we proudly stand beside The Jerome Bettis "Bus Stops Here" Foundation to help fuel a brighter future."
