Boston's Restaurant & Sports Bar of Shelby Township Aims to Fills Hearts and Empty Bellies

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, and in an effort to do its part in the fight against childhood hunger, Boston’s Restaurant & Sports Bar (Boston’s) of Shelby Township is participating in the annual Boston’s Cares fundraising campaign. From January 25 - February 14, the Boston’s of Shelby Township located at 15133 Hall Rd. will collect proceeds from the sale of Gourmet Pizzas in addition to guest donations for the Boston’s Pizza Foundation in support of No Kid Hungry®.

During the 2016 Boston’s Cares campaign, the Boston’s of Shelby Township will offer a variety of opportunities for guests to donate:

· $0.50 from every pizza will be donated to No Kid Hungry® and the Boston’s corporate team will match the money raised with a donation of their own

· February 8-14: Heart-Shaped Pizzas will be available during the week of Valentine’s Day

· Paper Hearts will be available for purchase which will then be hung up around the restaurant

“Participating in Boston’s Cares is an experience unlike any other,” said Nick Samp, General Manager of Boston’s of Shelby Township. “We get to do what we do every day but we know that it is contributing to helping hungry children get fed. It is amazing to be part of a national company that gives back and that allows us to participate on a local level in our own community.”

The national Boston’s Cares campaign is expected to raise over $28,000 in just 3 short weeks. This campaign is part of a continued effort for the Boston’s Pizza Foundation to raise funds for national charities. In 2015, alone, the Boston’s Pizza Foundation hosted multiple initiatives including an annual Golf Tournament and other year-round fundraising events in support of its national and local charity partners. Since its inception in 2003, the Boston’s Pizza Foundation has raised more than $1,500,000 in support of charities across the United States.

Hunger is an epidemic that is threatening America’s future by preventing children from reaching their full potential. The No Kid Hungry campaign connects kids in need with nutritious food and teaches families how to prepare healthy, affordable meals. The campaign also engages the public to make ending childhood hunger a national priority.
