The fifth largest pizza chain will donate funds
to support 4-H youth career readiness, life skills and development
programs.
Casey’s is building on its commitment to provide a foundation
for strong, sustaining communities by partnering with 4-H,
America’s largest youth development organization. Across the
company’s footprint, there are more than 2.5 million active 4-H
members.
Now through Nov. 5, Casey’s is inviting its guests to support
the partnership with 4-H and celebrate National Pizza Month in two
ways:
- With the purchase of every large pizza*, Casey’s will donate $1
to 4-H programs in Casey’s Country. (*up to $100,000)
- By adding a donation to their online orders to benefit local
4-H programs in their community.
“Casey’s and 4-H are a great match as we make life better in
communities across the heart of America, whether it’s the surprise
and delight of family pizza night or helping 4-H have a bigger
impact on the students’ career readiness,” said Katie Petru,
Director of Communications and Community at Casey’s. “We are
thrilled to partner with 4-H to provide young people with the
skill-building opportunities they need to be confident, future
leaders.”
In addition to the donation, 4-H youth will visit Casey’s
locations to learn more about what it means to work in retail and
how to make Casey’s pizza. This builds on Casey’s commitment to
support education initiatives and provide young people with
mentorship, hands-on learning, and insight into retail career
opportunities. The cities include:
- Cedar Rapids, Iowa
- Bowling Green, Kentucky
- Kansas City, Missouri
- Knoxville, Tennessee
“Our partnership with Casey’s perfectly aligns with our mission
to amplify youths’ voices, equip them with career-ready skills and
offer real-world experiences so kids can conquer today’s challenges
and shape tomorrow’s world,” said Heather Elliott, Chief
Development and Marketing Officer for 4-H.
Casey’s and 4-H share the passion and commitment to prepare
children for a bright future and create a skilled workforce through
hands-on learning experiences and access to educational resources.
