BOLINGBROOK, IL - In only two days, eating pizza in Bolingbrook will change forever thanks to the grand opening of the new MOD pizza. At noon on Friday, there will be a ribbon-cutting event at 750 Janes Avenue and the first 52 people in line will get a free individual artisan-style pizza or hand-tossed salad, the company indicated in a press release drawing attention to the Friday, May 18 event.

"For grand opening day in Bolingbrook, MOD will be donating 100 percent of pizza sales to Generosity Feeds who is working to reduce childhood hunger across the U.S.," the press release states. "Generosity Feeds’ hearty, protein-filled meals will be distributed through food pantries and school backpack programs throughout the Bolingbrook community."

“As a purpose-led organization, our motivation to bring MOD to new communities is driven by our desire to make a positive impact in our local communities. We do this by offering well-paying jobs, career development opportunities, and by partnering with local non-profits that support the community,” said Ally Svenson, co-founder and Chief Protector of the Purpose of MOD Pizza. “We call it ‘Spreading MODness’ and we can’t wait to bring it to Bolingbrook.”
