Hurricane Pizza Relief

Posted by Adam Kuban, September 1, 2005 at 6:50 PM

The folks at Pizza Marketing Quarterly have set up a website to help victims of Hurricane Katrina. Hurricane Pizza Relief offers a way for pizzeria owners and suppliers to send support to the Big Easy and other areas struck by the 'cane.

Sounds weird asking pizzamakers and suppliers to help, huh? We had a little chuckle too, at first. But, according to PMQ's website, several such entities have contacted the magazine and asked how they can help. Some have pledged to send pizza trucks (yes, they do exist), while others are sending frozen dough and cheese.

At Slice, we usually think of pizza as fun, but in this case, it's serious business and can perhaps provide real nourishment to people without access to food. So far, pizzerias from Ohio and Utica, New York, are on board. (Where's the NYC love?) If you're a pizzeria and would like to help, visit the site. (If you're a just a plain ol' pizza-eatin' civilian, you might try America's Second Harvest.
