MOD Pizza celebrated the grand opening of their Canyon Park location on Oct. 23 by donating 100 percent of pizza sales to the Northshore Schools Foundation to support individualized learning opportunities for all students. On Nov. 3, the MOD Pizza team presented the Foundation with a check for $4,422.88 to enhance learning opportunities for students and support the mission of the Foundation.
The grand opening was attended by more than 400 people who not only enjoyed great pizza but also enjoyed the free photo booth, giveaways and personalizing the location with stickers with their name.
The first 52 people received free pizza.
“This is what we hope will be the beginning of a lasting partnership – building a genuine connection between MOD and community members,” MOD representatives said in a statement. “We love providing MODsters with the opportunity to feel the emotional rush of that comes with giving back and it means that much more when it’s a cause they have chosen themselves. And the Goodness doesn’t stop there. Studies show that giving has countless benefit for the giver including gratitude –one of MOD’s most important values.”
In a continuation of this giving back, MOD Pizza has also chosen Northshore Schools Foundation for their Spreading MODness campaign this year. The Spreading MODness campaign celebrates the Thanksgiving holiday and the company’s seventh birthday by donating $1 for every MOD Pizza purchased during Thanksgiving week, Nov. 24-29.
On Black Friday, typically a day of spending, MOD is encouraging customers to give back and “add a buck” to their bill to double the donation and double the impact.
“We have grown this business with the intention to impact as many lives as possible. To do this, we start with our MOD Squad and encourage them to make a difference, both in our stores and within their communities. Our Squads are very motivated by this purpose beyond pizza, and the chance to ‘Spread MODness’ which we define as the ripple effect of simply doing the right thing,” said co-founder of MOD Pizza Ally Svenson. “We are proud to once again partner with such an inspiring group of local organizations to not only support their amazing efforts, but to promote generosity – one of MOD’s core values.”
MOD Pizza is located at 22833 Bothell Everett High Way in Bothell.
