In today’s special edition Wednesday newsletter, instead of politics or hot topics, I offer an easy way to donate to a local nonprofit and eat great pizza!
All day today, Wednesday, August 30th, Papa’s Pizza will be hosting a fundraiser for Jasper Mountain at all three Papa’s locations (West 11th, Coburg Road, and Main Street in Springfield)
How does it work?
Just present the attached flyer (hard copy or e-version) at checkout and Jasper Mountain will receive 50% of all sales from dine-in and take-out.
Which Papa’s Pizza locations are participating?
All three Papa’s Pizza locations in Eugene/Springfield:
1700 West 11th Ave, Eugene, OR 97402
1577 Coburg Rd, Eugene, OR 97401
4011 Main St, Springfield, OR 97478
Who is Jasper Mountain? Funny you should ask! My wife is a member of their Board of Directors, and my former Chief of Staff now works for them.
Situated in the heart of the beautiful Willamette Valley just outside of Eugene/Springfield, Jasper Mountain is a children’s 24/7 psychiatric, residential treatment facility committed to helping the most vulnerable children in Oregon, and around the country. A one-of-kind nonprofit, Jasper Mountain is often the last hope for children (ages 4-13) who have experienced trauma, have not been successful in out-of-home placements, have been hospitalized for psychiatric reasons, and more. Utilizing a trauma-informed care model that focuses on a holistic treatment approach enhancing the mind, body, and spirit, Jasper Mountain is truly a place of hope and healing.
