Help Local Pizza Truck: Recent Theft of Generator
Donation protected
Hello everyone, my name is Mario I am the pizzaolo behind Happy Birthday Pizza! You may have seen me around making pizza with my Pizza Pop-Ups at local establishments or serving it out of my food truck (Happy Birthday Pizza) in my local residence of Newburgh!
Unfortunately, recently my truck had a theft and vandalism that has left the business without the essential power source needed to operate equipment, including the oven, fridges, hot water heater, and other appliances.
I started this pizza-making venture with just my pizza oven and a passion for cooking that was instilled in me by my Italian upbringing. Every time I cook, it reminded me of my grandmother's cooking for my family, and I try to translate that love and respect for ingredients and practices into the food I serve my customers and supporters.
I'm reaching out to the community for support in getting Happy Birthday Pizza back up and running. With your help, I can replace the stolen generator and repair the damage caused by the vandals.
You might have enjoyed my pizza at various locations around Newburgh,
including:
-Newburgh Vintage Emporium at both locations on 17k and 9w
-Newburgh Makers Market
-Spirits Lab
-Lodger: Sunday Pop Ups on Liberty St.
-Resorts World Casino in Newburgh,
-Toasted Trivia Night
-We Still Lit
and pop-ups in the City of Newburgh such as Sunsets softball games by the water.
Thank you for considering helping. Your support means the world to me, and I can't wait to get back to making pizzas very soon!
