TORONTO — Pizza Nova president Domenic Primucci recently visited Variety Village (Variety – The Children’s Charity of Ontario) to present a cheque for a record-breaking $217,874 to Karen Stintz, the charity’s CEO, as part of fundraiser that raises proceeds through the sale of its dipping sauces.
“The best part of this fundraiser is seeing the smiles on people’s faces, from our guests who appreciate the opportunity to give, to the children who understand the love that drives it,” says Primucci. “We’re grateful to everyone, especially our franchisees, employees, guests and partners for their unwavering support of this campaign.”
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the partnership, which has accumulated more than $2.7 million to support children in need.
“Pizza Nova has been a strong supporter of Variety since 1999,” says Stintz. “This generous donation will enable us to help more children play, develop life skills and receive the support they need. This partnership has grown so much over the last 25 years, and we’re eager to continue to partner with a company that so passionately shares our values.”
