Stamford-headquartered Riko’s Pizza has announced a new partnership with the Breast Cancer Alliance (BCA) that will provide fundraising and awareness efforts for the nonprofit during October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month observance.
During October, Riko’s will host “Dough-Nation Tuesdays” on Tuesdays where 10% of all sales from its eight locations will be donated to BCA. A donation event will also be held on Monday, Oct. 30.
Riko’s will also launch a new web page detailing its corporate social responsibility efforts, including its partnership with BCA, and it will sell a limited edition co-branded pink t-shirt during October, with all proceeds from sales to be donated to BCA. The company will also have special pizza boxes at its locations and will host one-off dedicated breast cancer awareness events at select locations featuring live music, special promotions and other giveaways.
“BCA is a wonderful organization with a critical mission and an impressive track record of success,” said Rico Imbrogno, co-founder and CEO of Riko’s Pizza. “Since our inception, we have worked hard to make Riko’s a community-minded and socially responsible organization. We’re always looking for impactful ways to support important causes, and BCA’s approach aligns well with our vision for giving back. We are thrilled to have them as our partner for Breast Cancer Awareness month.”
