The Pizza Across America campaign created in 2018 by the Jersey Pizza boys — Carmine, Michael and Nicky Testa — with Slice Out Hunger asks pizzerias to donate at least 10 pies to their local shelters, soup kitchens and hunger action centers. Scott Wiener, the founder of the volunteer-driven nonprofit, said “this year it’s even more critical to fight against our nation’s growing food insecurity problem.” Pizza shops from all over the country will participate with the World Pizza Champions to support neighbors in need.
