TL;DR
Your Pie of Perimeter is celebrating its one-year anniversary by giving back to the local community through a donation drive. The store aims to donate one pizza for every day it has been open by selling 365 gyro pies and donating one pizza for each sale.
Said Maclellan, “This Saturday, for every gyro pie sold, we'll donate one pizza to feed hungry local families. We've set a goal to sell 365 gyro so we can donate one pizza for every day we've been open.”
According to the article, Your Pie is hopeful they will hit their goal because of the tremendous community support they have received. The pizzas will be donated through the Community Assistance Center.
Said Maclellan, “Food donations to the center go directly to those in need right here in our community and allows the food pantry to provide for an average of 1,200 visits a month. In 2015, the center gave out more than 500,000 pounds of food valued at about $1 million. Thanks to donations from individuals, businesses, congregations, schools and civic organizations about 500 families a month receive food assistance.”
