Hungry Howie’s Furthers Partnership With National Breast Cancer Foundation To Provide Relief Amid Covid-19 Pandemic

TL;DR

Hungry Howie's continues its partnership with the National Breast Cancer Foundation to provide relief amid the COVID-19 pandemic through fundraising efforts. The brand has raised over $3 million for NBCF since 2009.

NBCF created the COVID-19 Relief Fund to support breast cancer patients and nurse navigators in hospitals across the United States. NBCF navigators are on the frontlines of helping breast cancer patients recently diagnosed or currently undergoing treatment. Funds raised will go directly towards life-saving patient navigation services and support to their network of hospital partners treating breast cancer patients during this pandemic.

Hungry Howie’s has been a proud supporter of NBCF for over 10 years through their annual “Love, Hope & Pizza.” Since the program’s inception in 2009, the brand has raised more than $3 million collectively.

“Hungry Howie’s is honored to further our involvement with NBCF during this unprecedented time,” said Steve Jackson, CEO of Hungry Howie’s. “Now, more than ever it is important to provide support to those on the frontlines, and we are incredibly grateful for the healthcare providers, first responders and other essential workers keeping our communities safe amid this pandemic. We look forward to working alongside NBCF to not only provide relief, but to build stronger communities.”
