Imo’s Pizza at Rhodes Introduces Fundraising Days to Benefit Schools and Organizations

CAPE GIRARDEAU – In February 2017, Imo’s Pizza at Rhodes introduced fundraising opportunities to benefit schools and organizations.  The opportunities include fundraising days on which a group receives 10% of Imo’s Pizza product and gift card sales from the entire day.  Sales are not limited to only a few hours of operation or just customers that mentioned the benefitting group upon ordering.  Rather, Imo’s Pizza at Rhodes allows the school or organization to benefit from all purchases made the entire day.  Participating schools have been:

  • Scott City Elementary School (Scott City, Mo.) – earned $199.27
  • St. Vincent School System (Perryville, Mo.) – earned $642.66
  • Perryville High School Spring Sports Program (Perryville, Mo.) – earned $394.95
  • St. Augustine School (Kelso, Mo.) – earned $300.66
  • Bell City Schools (Bell City, Mo.) – earned $158.52

Imo’s Pizza at Rhodes also helps schools and organizations publicize their events.  Fliers are provided to share with students’ and members’ families and Facebook posts to reach their social media followers.

“We are making school fundraising events easy and accessible to local schools and organizations. It’s our way of thanking communities that have welcomed and supported our businesses (Imo’s Pizza and Rhodes),” said Brent Anderson, Rhodes’ Vice President of Business Development and Operations. “We look forward to serving our local communities, schools and organizations for years to come.”

Imo’s Pizza at Rhodes invites any interested school to book a 10% fundraising day with its company or presell Imo’s Pizza frozen pizzas. Interested groups should contact their local Imo’s Pizza at Rhodes for details.
