June 13th - June 19th, 2011

A Slice of Hope creates moments of joy in homeless shelters/kitchens/missions through pizza parties with live music. For just $1, you can sponsor 2 slices and live music and create gladness for a person in need. Picture the pizza parties with stacks of hot, fresh pizzas rolling in, music playing in the shelters and cheers, laughter and smiles all throughout the shelter! A Slice of Hope throws parties for 1 week every June. But only with your help: Please donate! Even $1 makes a direct difference!

Started in June 2007 as Pizza for the Hungry, A Slice of Hope empowers both the donor and the recepient:
- the donor makes a direct difference for a person in need by feeding the body (pizza) and feeding the soul (music)
- the recipient is empowered by the hope and inspiration that is created by the donors and volunteers

In 2011, A Slice of Hope will take place from June 13th to June 19th and will once again be throwing/organizing parties in 25 states! With your help, we can do it. Your support last year has allowed us to ramain in 25 states since 2009, even though we are in challenging economic times. Eventually, with your support, we hope to make A Slice of Hope a nationwide event. In this economy, it's really important that everyone give a little bit and volunteer a little bit and come together as a community to help those in need.
