Uno’s Fundraiser for PYD @ Uno's Pizzeria
Apr 5 @ 11:00 am – Apr 6 @ 12:30 am

All you have to do is eat or drink at Uno’s Pizzeria on April 5th to support this PYD fundraiser! Uno’s will donate 20% of your bill’s proceeds to the PYD scholarship and outreach fund. That’s pretty exceptional since most venue’s fundraising programs donate only 5%. The one string attached is that you have to remember to mention the PYD fundraiser or present them with the PYD ticket, printed or via smartphone. Even if you forget your ticket, they will honor the fundraiser as long as you mention it to your server!

The fundraiser is valid for the entire day, from open to close (11:00am to 12:30am). The fundraiser is valid on not just food, but also on drinks (including alcohol), and also for catering orders. This is big. Catering orders count! If we can spread the word to business owners in the area, and they call Uno’s before April 5th, those catering sales count!

#GivingTuesday Fundraising Campaign

We will be raising $1,000 for dancer education for the new year. That means PYD students will have the opportunity to work with new and exciting choreographers and we will be training these talented youth to give their gift of dance to the community! Every $100 raised gives programming to a PYD student to have the opportunity to train with professionals and pass their knowledge to the younger dance community.  Facebook is contributing up to $1 million in total matching to donations made through Facebook on December 3rd and Facebook charges no fees on donations, so all of the money raised will go towards our goal.

Thank you for your support!
