Domino’s® to Raise ‘Dough’ for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® with 15th Annual St. Jude Thanks and Giving® Campaign

October 22, 2018

ANN ARBOR, Michigan, Oct. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Domino’s Pizza (NYSE: DPZ) is raising “dough” for the kids of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital^®for the 15th straight year as part of the St. Jude Thanks and Giving^®campaign. The recognized world leader in pizza delivery’s fundraising efforts begin today, Oct. 22, 2018, and will continue through Jan. 6, 2019.

Domino’s will ask customers online, over the phone and in stores to support St. Jude by adding a donation to their order or rounding up their order total to donate the change. Select customers enrolled in Domino’s Piece of the Pie Rewards^® loyalty program will be offered an opportunity to earn bonus points by donating. Details will be emailed to eligible customers during the campaign.

Customers can also help the kids of St. Jude by purchasing the St. Jude Meal Deal – a bundle that includes two medium one-topping Hand Tossed pizzas, a 16-piece order of Parmesan Bread Bites, an eight-piece order of Cinnamon Bread Twists, a two-liter of Coca-Cola^® and a $1 donation to St. Jude – for $19.99.

“Domino’s is proud to launch our 15th St. Jude Thanks and Giving^® campaign,” said Ritch Allison, Domino’s CEO. “We’re grateful for the opportunity to help the kids of St. Jude by offering our customers and neighborhoods an easy way to contribute during the campaign.”

Franchisees across the country have embraced St. Jude as part of the Domino’s culture. Many create additional fundraising events for team members and customers. Lee Prior’s team in Maine holds multiple team member-focused and customer-focused events to benefit St. Jude, including 3-on-3 basketball tournaments, art shows and auctions. In Indiana, Jim Gronemann invites children in the community into his store for a fun pizza-making event in exchange for a donation to the kids of St. Jude.

Domino’s has raised more than $47 million for St. Jude since becoming a national partner in 2004, and in 2015 committed to raise an additional $35 million by 2023. Domino’s and its customers raised more than $8.6 million during the 2017 campaign. This year, Domino’s is hoping to raise $9.5 million with the help of customers across the country.

The Domino’s team has also embraced St. Jude as its national charity partner outside of the St. Jude Thanks and Giving season. During September, Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, hundreds of Domino’s team members in 27 cities across the country participated in the St. Jude Walk/Run to End Childhood Cancer, raising more than $153,000 for the hospital. Each spring, Domino’s hosts a video game marathon at its headquarters in Ann Arbor, Michigan as part of St. Jude PLAY LIVE.

“I am so grateful to Domino’s for their commitment to the children of St. Jude,” said Marlo Thomas, National Outreach Director for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. “Fifteen years ago we created this campaign to uphold my father Danny’s promise that no family ever pays St. Jude for anything. The overwhelming support from Domino’s will once again provide an opportunity for holiday shoppers to raise funds that directly support the research that leads to life saving treatments for children across the country and around the world.”

Created by Marlo, Terre and Tony Thomas – children of St. Jude founder Danny Thomas – the St. Jude Thanks and Giving campaign asks people to “Give thanks for the healthy kids in your life, and give to those who are not” in order to help St. Jude continue its lifesaving mission: Finding cures. Saving children.^® St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to more than 80 percent since it opened more than 50 years ago, and they won’t stop until no child dies from cancer.

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — In the cannabis industry safety and quality should be the highest priority of any producer and Evergreen Organix takes this responsibility to heart. All their signature products use only the finest ingredients and premium cannabis that is grown in a no till permaculture environment that is clean green certified. Everything is hand crafted and made in small batches to ensure quality and consistency in each product. To top it off, all products are tested to strict state regulations – and are also tested for shelf-life stability.

Quality and Consistency are our Priority (PRNewsfoto/Evergreen Organix)

The state of Nevada is avid about consumer education – and so is Evergreen Organix. In a proactive attempt to educate customers regarding edible safety there is information available on the website both under a specific “education” tab, is referenced on the blog and educational warning cards are also available at each dispensary. Further safety precautions are taken with opaque packaging that is designed to still be eye-catching to adult consumers while not appealing to children. Product packaging is heat sealed and tamper proof – with clearly displayed product facts for consumers including THC and/or CBD content. Evergreen Organix is one of the only edible producers in Nevada that has Nutritional information available on their website for consumers of their products.

“We are a family business and take the reasonability very serious, so we not only adhere to State guidelines, but we go above what is required to protect the consumer and the integrity of what our organization was founded on,” said Jillian Nelson, Operations Manager.

As Evergreen Organix continues their expansion into California, Colorado and Arizona, these safety protocols and practices will remain intact – adhering to regulations in each state as required. The quality and safety of each product will always be the end goal for Evergreen Organix as operations expand with the growing legal industry.

Evergreen Organix is a Las Vegas based producer of cannabis edibles, topical and vape products that uses only the finest ingredients and premium cannabis. Their signature line of products is soon to be available in California, Colorado, Washington, Montana and Arizona to both medicinal and adult recreational consumers.
