Help Me Change How Business Should Be, Support Penguini's Pizza
Hi, I’m Thomas! A passionate food lover with a vision to change how business is done through Pizza. For nearly a decade (2007–2015), I managed restaurants, perfecting my craft of delivering delicious food and exceptional service. After stepping away for a career in Oil and Gas, I’ve decided to return to my true calling: creating affordable options that bring people together over great food.
Now, I need your help to turn this dream into a reality.
What Makes Us Unique
- Delicious & Affordable: locally sourced ingredients, cutting out the middleman to make costs lower.
- Perfect Location: Located in downtown Winnipeg, in a high traffic area, close to Post-Secondary, Professional Offices and Sporting Events.
- Community-Driven: A game plan to give back to the community and the planet! It all starts here.
Our Giving Back Initiative
For every Large Recipe Pizza sold from February 15 to April 15, Penguini’s Pizza will donate $1.00 to Penguins International (https://www.penguinsinternational.org). We believe in giving back and want this to be our first major contribution!
For every Large Recipe Pizza sold from April 16 to July 15, Penguini’s Pizza will donate $1.00 to the Canadian Cancer Society (http://cancer.ca). As someone who is just one of many who have lost someone to Cancer, I want to do my part to fight.
For every Large Recipe Pizza sold from July 16 to October 15, Penguini’s Pizza will donate $1.00 to Harvest Manitoba (https://www.harvestmanitoba.ca). Getting this donation in right before Christmas will help ensure that families dependent on the food banks in Winnipeg will be able to feed themselves during what is likely the most financially difficult time of year. We love what Harvest does and would love to be a part of it in the coming year!
The Goal: $65,000 in 15 Days
To open the doors to Penguini’s Pizza, I need to raise $65,000 in 10 days. Every contribution will directly support:
- Restaurant Equipment: Outfitting the kitchen with the tools needed to make magic happen.
- Fresh Ingredients: Sourcing high quality local ingredients that will keep the cost down and the quality up.
- Promotional Efforts: Launching our 4 step marketing campaign to let Winnipeg know we are here!
- Job Creation: We are creating 5 jobs right out of the gate!
This is more than a fundraising campaign, it’s your chance to help me bring a philanthropic way of business to 2025 and beyond.
