Larosa’s Team Member Relief Fund Update: $303,260 Raised

Program Assisting Nearly 4,000 Team Members Across 65 Pizzerias in Ohio, Kentucky & Indiana

April 22, 2020 // Franchising.com // CINCINNATI, OHIO - The measures used to help stop the spread of the COVID-19 virus have affected all of LaRosa’s nearly 4,000 team members in one way or another. So, on April 3, The LaRosa Family and LaRosa’s Family Pizzerias launched the LaRosa’s Team Member Relief Fund with $ 100,000 to help, using a uniquely LaRosa’s solution. In less than three weeks, the fund has grown to $ 303,260 through over $ 90,000 in Buddy Card sales, cash donations from LaRosa’s guests and The LaRosa Family dollar-for-dollar match. The Relief Fund is directly supporting all LaRosa’s Family Pizzeria team members and will continue to be active until LaRosa’s dining rooms open again.

“The community continues to show their support for our team members. Our goal is to help our team members and their families to make ends meet during this unprecedented time”, said Michael LaRosa, CEO, LaRosa’s, Inc.

100% of the proceeds from LaRosa’s $10 Buddy Cards for sale in its pizzerias and online will go to the Relief Fund. The Buddy Card is a popular promotion that has helped hundreds of groups and organizations to raise funds who have sold them over the past nearly 30 years. It features 14 ‘buy-one large pizza and get a large cheese pizza free’ offers for pick up and dine in and is valid for a year.

Guests and the community-at-large can buy Buddy Cards at LaRosa’s pizzerias in person. Or, Guests can add a Buddy Card to an order when using the LaRosa’s app, at larosas.com or by calling 513-347-1111 or 1-888-LAROSAS. LaRosa’s will even bring a newly- purchased card along with a delivery order. Guests who would like to simply donate to the Team Member Relief Fund can donate directly through the app, by calling or online.

LaRosa’s is offering something to help guests get through these unprecedented times, too. Now until LaRosa’s dining rooms open again, when Guests use any active Buddy Card- newly purchased or one that is months old- just like they usually do, LaRosa’s will not deduct any offers from the Buddy Card.
