Pizza to the Polls
12:00 am
With long lines already reported at polling sites nationwide, The Great American Takeout is teaming up with Samuel Adams, Slice and Pizza to the Polls to feed hungry Americans at the polls.
On Tuesday, Oct. 27, exactly one week before Election Day, The Great American Takeout is throwing a national pizza party. For every takeout pizza you order and share on social media with the hashtag #DemocracyIsDelicious, Samuel Adams will donate one pizza to Pizza to the Polls (up to a $5,000 value).
“Samuel Adams is proud to continue our support of The Great American Takeout through this timely initiative, harnessing the revolutionary spirit of our namesake to fuel not only the restaurant industry but people at the polls during this crucial moment in our country,” said Matt Withington, Samuel Adams Director of Marketing. “Pizza is as non-partisan as it gets and something we can all rally behind, especially the small businesses committed to keeping us going this year.”
Pizza to the Polls is a non-profit, non-partisan organization that’s working with local pizza shops around the country to deliver free food to polling stations. Hungry people at the polls can request a pizza delivery by reporting their poll line at https://polls.pizza/report.
The Great American Takeout: Democracy Is Delicious is the latest in a series of virtual events under The Great American Takeout umbrella. The COVID-19 crisis has devastated the restaurant industry, leaving restaurants reliant on takeout and delivery to survive. The Great American Takeout, a program developed and executed by Los Angeles advertising agency High Wide & Handsome, has generated widespread buzz, reaching more than 117 million people nationwide, and raised $350,000 to date for charitable organizations.
