Back-To-School Drive Challenges Supporters To "Name Your Price" And Make A Difference

Online, September 7, 2011 (Newswire.com) - John's Incredible Pizza Company issued a month long call to action in an effort to support local families and education with the launch of its 2nd annual Back-To-School Drive supporting Boys & Girls Clubs.

"John's is donating $5 Fun Cards as a "Thank You" to our guests who make a monetary donation when visiting any of our 11 locations during our Back-To-School Drive," said Laura Kroth, Director of Sales & Marketing, "We're asking our guests to pay whatever they'd like for a $5 FunCard and John's will donate 100% of that donation to support our local Boys & Girls Clubs. Our guests are also given the opportunity to donate school supplies in exchange for additional Fun World credits, and guests who wish to simply drop off school supplies will receive a certificate redeemable for 10 free Fun World credits to use on their next visit to John's."

Mike Stout, Director of Operations explains, "Last year was our first school supplies drive and it was a heartfelt learning experience for us as a company. The kids enjoyed helping others so much last year that we wanted to reward them. This year, children 12 & under can participate in a writing contest about Incredibear. One child will be chosen from each of our 11 locations and the prize for each winner is a fun Behind the Scenes Tour of John's for the entire classroom, troop, or other non-profit group."

Lori Stowe, VP of Operations, concludes, "Taking a seasonal promotion and aligning it with a cause such as this does exactly what our Pay It Forward Initiatives have been designed to do. We look forward to many more opportunities to give back while we continue to build and grow our John's Incredible Pizza Company community."

John's Incredible Pizza Company's Back-To-School Drive will continue through September 15th. John's accepts donations during regular business hours, visit www.johnspizza.com/school_drive/ to print the writing contest page and learn more about participation.
