Dedham, MA (October 6, 2020): Over the course of 10 weeks this spring, Papa Gino's and D'Angelo Grilled Sandwiches donated 480 X-Large Pizzas and 1,500 sandwiches to 80 healthcare facilities across New England through their respective community donation programs.

The PapaGino's program is called Pizza My Heart and the D'Angelo program is called EveryDAy Heroes. Each benefitted healthcare heroes fighting the outbreak of COVID-19 in facilities such as hospitals, assisted living facilities, urgent care clinics and others.

Building on the success of these programs, and inspired by the heroes already recognized, Papa Gino's and D'Angelo have decided to continue with these weekly deliveries, now expanding the potential recipients to any group or organization who stands out in their community. This could be first responders, grocery store employees, animal shelters, day care centers and others - the program is open to all heroes and will run for 10 weeks.

Recipients of the Pizza My Heart program will receive up to 7 X-Large Cheese Pizzas, and recipients of the EveryDAy Heroes program will receive up to 30 sandwiches and bags of chips.

The primary method of nominating recipients for the donations is to fill out the quick and easy nomination forms below.

"We're very grateful for the opportunity to hear these stories and reward these amazing individuals with their favorite hometown food through the continuation of our cherished community donation programs."

As always, the health and safety of recipients and Papa Gino's and D'Angelo team members is a priority, and the donations are carried out using proper social distancing practices and No-Contact Delivery.
