RICHMOND, Va., June 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Marco's Pizza opened a new location in Bon Air, and to celebrate, the pizza shop is giving back. No matter the size or toppings, one dollar for every pizza sold now through June 11 at Marco's Pizza, 2518 Sheila Lane, will be donated to Children's Hospital of Richmond (CHoR) at VCU. Customers can call 575-7575 or order online at marcos.com.
While CHoR celebrates the opening of the Children's Tower, Marco's Pizza could think of no better partner to celebrate the grand opening of its newest location. Just one turn off I-95, the new Children's Tower opened April 30 and completes an entire city block dedicated to caring for kids. Connected to the outpatient Children's Pavilion, the Tower houses emergency, trauma and inpatient care.
"We are so grateful to Marco's Pizza as we both celebrate grand openings and appreciate their generosity in supporting kids and families in our local community," said Rachel Bruni, Executive Director, Cause Marketing and Retail Fundraising at Children's Hospital Foundation.
Richmond is home to two Marco's Pizza franchise groups and each is committed to giving back to the Richmond community. "Marco's Pizza is about two things: giving back and serving authentic Italian pizza. The only thing we love serving more than pizza is the Richmond community," said MP RVA Development, LLC co-owner, Sara Ragsdale. The Bon Air location is the twelfth Marco's Pizza in Central Virginia.
