As part of its month-long fundraising initiative for Special Olympics Virginia, CiCi’s Pizza will host “Dough Raisers” events at participating* locations across the state on Tuesday, Aug. 13. During the event, CiCi’s guests will be challenged to purchase enough Special Olympics paper logos to cover an entire law enforcement vehicle. All proceeds from the $1 logos will go to Special Olympics Virginia.
Since Aug. 1, CiCi’s guests have been able to purchase and personalize Special Olympics logos, which are displayed in restaurants throughout the state. Guests also can donate $5 to the cause and in return receive a voucher for a free regular sized drink. Both fundraising initiatives will continue through the month.
“This is our second year of partnership with Special Olympics Virginia and we hope this year will be even bigger,” said CiCi’s Field Marketing Manager Diana Isaacson. “We encourage our neighbors to head into their local CiCi’s restaurant on Aug. 13 to help ‘Cover the Cruiser’ and raise money for Special Olympics local programs.”
