Uno to Deliver 10,000 pizzas to U.S. Troops

A Boston-based restaurant chain that features deep-dish pizza is teaming up with a non-profit organization to help our troops in Central Asia.

According to The Boston Globe, Uno Restaurant Holdings and Pizzas 4 Patriots are setting up a "$5 for $50" fundraiser that allows diners to buy coupon books for $5 and get back $50 in coupons. The funds that are raised will help send 10,000 pizzas to members of the armed forces who are stationed in Afghanistan, with the pies being delivered on Super Bowl Sunday (February 5, 2012). The Globe mentions that coupon books will be available at Uno locations until the end of December. (For locations of the restaurant chain, please go to their website at http://www.unos.com/)
