While that loaded pepperoni slice always satisfies, an order on Veterans Day serves more than a bite of deliciousness. Collaborating with NCIS: NEW YORK, the restaurant brand and the popular CBS series support service members and their families.
Veterans Day is one moment to recognize the 365 days a year of service. While the men and women in uniform serve their country, their families serve in their own way. That unconditional love and support is another form of service by military families.
As many restaurants and food brands offer meals and discounts every November, some companies choose to donate beyond that single day. This year, Prince St. Pizza and NCIS: NEW YORK join forces to celebrate service members and their families both on November 11 and every day of the year.
As Lawrence Longo, CEO of Prince St. Pizza explained, “Prince St. Pizza has always been about bringing people together, and we’re glad to put that spirit behind a cause that matters so much. With the support of our guests and ‘NCIS: NEW YORK’, we can help the Red Cross continue supporting service members and their families every day, not just on Veterans Day.”
Prince St. Pizza Celebrates Veterans Day
On Veterans Day, the brand has two special offers. First, the restaurant brand will offer veterans and active-duty military a free slice of pizza. With proof of service, guests can claim their free food at all locations.
Second, the company will donate 10% of in-store sales at participating locations to the American Red Cross Service to the Armed Forces program. In addition, the company partnered with CBS’ “NCIS: NEW YORK.” The program will match the in-store sales donation up to $10,000.
At the brand’s Brooklyn location, special guests will be serving slices. NCIS: NEW YORK cast members Devin Druid, Shane Harper and Jacqueline Byers will hand out complimentary slices, sign autographs and take photos with attendees from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
According to Byron Balasco, executive producer and showrunner of NCIS: NEW YORK, “NCIS: NEW YORK has the privilege of telling stories about people who serve, and now on Veterans Day our focus is to honor the real men and women who have served our country and the families who have supported them. We’re proud to join Prince St. Pizza and the American Red Cross in saying thank you and showing our appreciation.”
Regardless of people’s opinions on current politics, world strife, and other upheavals, the men and women in uniform choose to serve. On Veterans Day, the moment is a time to reflect on duty, honor, and country.
