Boston's is committed to giving back to the communities in which we operate. Building on this tradition first started by our parent company, Boston Pizza in Canada, Boston's Restaurant & Sports Bar has sold our specialty heart-shaped pizzas and paper hearts to help raise funds for local charities. Over the past thirteen years, Boston's Pizza Foundation has donated over $550,000 to local charities.
In 2012, $1 from the following items at Boston's will be donated to Boston's Cares charities: Heart-Shaped Pizza, Paper Hearts, Gluten Free Brownie a la Mode & the Red Velvet Cheesecake.
The Boston’s Pizza Foundation is proud to support the following charities:
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is internationally recognized for its pioneering research and treatment of children with cancer and other life-threatening diseases. The hospital’s research has helped push overall survival rates for childhood cancer from less than 20 percent when the institution opened to almost 80 percent today. It is the first and only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center devoted solely to children, and no family ever pays St. Jude for care. For more information, go to www.stjude.org and follow St. Jude on www.facebook.com/stjude and www.twitter.com/stjude.
Kids Matter International is a Texas-based charity that is committed to helping children. Their mission is to bring healing to children around the world affected by debilitating conditions, from abandonment to chronic illness, so that they may become healthy, educated and viable members of their communities.
In 2010, Boston’s supported KMI’s local Kids Matter Around the Block! program by raising more than $61,000 and helping 768 underprivileged children from North Texas select new winter wardrobes.
