COLLEGE STATION, Texas — The College Station Rotary Club is hosting its first-ever ‘Pizza for a Purpose’ fundraiser at Napa Flats Wood-fired Kitchen on October 17 benefitting its annual Clothing for Kids program on December 4.

Former College Station Rotarian and current Napa Flats Principal and Chief Bus Boy Tom Kenney said they will have their portable pizza oven outside to bake three different kinds of pizzas and deliver them right to your car window.

“We're really excited to support the Rotary Club of College Station,” Kenney said, “I mean it's clothes for kids for the holidays and I think [it’s great how we’re] donating our time and money to help support this really worthy cause.”

When Kenney was initially asked to host ‘Pizza for a Purpose’ at Napa Flats, his answer wasn’t a "yes," it was a "what do you need?"

“There's a lot of organizations that do a lot of good in the community, the Rotary Club [of College Station] has done a lot of good,” Kenney said, “we need to continue to do things to support the people that don't have what everyone what others have and supporting the clothes drive is a really great activity, I've done it.”

Member of the College Station Rotary Club Nancy Dickey said Marti Marberry, another CS Rotary Member came up with ‘Pizza for a Purpose’ and said every member is excited for this Sunday.

“We've looked at ways to do a breakfast fundraiser, [because] we're a Breakfast Club,” Dickey said, “The reality is, there are people who don't like early and so we looked around for an opportunity to involve other people in supporting the work that the morning Rotary Club does and how can you turn down a good bottle of wine and a wonderful pizza?”
