For the third year in a row, Fernando's Wedgewood Pizza in Boardman is hosting its "Buy One, Give One" event to support the Rescue Mission of the Mahoning Valley.

On Thursday, February 6, every pizza purchased at the shop will result in a donated pizza for individuals and families staying at the Mission. The event takes place a few days early in celebration of National Pizza Day.

"A nice, warm pizza coming in as a result of the generosity from Anthony at Wedgewood over in Boardman, it meets the need for those folks that come into the Rescue Mission," said John Muckridge, President and CEO of the Rescue Mission.

The Mission, which operates solely on donations, provides food and emergency shelter year-round. Owner Anthony Pellegrini says the initiative is just one way to give back.

"What better organization to help with than the Rescue Mission? What they do every day—365 days a year, feeding the needy—is just wonderful," Pellegrini said.

Fernando's Wedgewood Pizza in Boardman will be open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on February 6th for the "Buy One, Give One" event.
