Meet the Happy Joe’s Kids Foundation

When Happy Joe Whitty established Happy Joe’s in 1972, he vowed to ensure that families with special needs kids were fully incorporated. Since then, except for a two-year break from the pandemic in 2020 and 2021, the American Pizza Parlor has never skipped a year of hosting these gatherings.

This year Happy Joe’s Pizza & Ice Cream, in collaboration with the Happy Joe’s Kids Foundation, will be reviving its traditional holiday celebrations for kids with special needs. Thus, ending a two-year pause due to the COVID crisis. Tom Sacco, CEO and Chief Happiness Officer of Happy Joe’s, desires that every child in the firm’s hometown, the Quad Cities, and most other destinations of Happy Joe’s, be able to gain from this experience.

This, according to a release by the company. Several franchise holders host separate gatherings for their special needs communities at Happy Joe´s. The esteemed Midwestern pizza business is excited to report that they will again be throwing exuberant festivities designed for kids with special needs during the holiday season. 

Sacco and the Happy Joe’s crew will provide meals and entertainment to these uniquely remarkable attendees and their teachers, guardians, and caregivers. According to Sacco, who announced a press release, the holiday season is the perfect year to give back (Places). 

“No one should have a merrier time than kids with specific requirements,” he conveyed. Happy Joe’s wish is to be renowned for its tasty meals and delightful experience. These festivities have been created to certify that these remarkable children experience gratitude and have a place in our society  through the Happy Joe’s Kids Foundation. It has been communicated that this is the highlight of their vacations for most children, and their guardians and educators are elated that get-togethers have returned.
