Domino's raises record amount for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

Domino's Pizza raised $2 million for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital during the 2009 Thanks and Giving campaign. This marks the largest single charitable donation in the history of Domino's Pizza, according to a company statement.

"Domino's Pizza stores across the country, along with our millions of customers, rallied to support this amazing cause and brought in double what was collected in 2008," said Patrick Doyle, president of Domino's Pizza. "I want to extend a heartfelt thanks to everyone — our customers, team members and franchisees — who contributed during the campaign. Together we were able to raise public awareness and much needed dollars to support the lifesaving work at St. Jude."

During the 2009 Thanks and Giving campaign, Domino's stores nationwide participated by asking for $1 or more to be added to customer's orders to help the kids of St. Jude. With the combined support of Domino's customers, stores, franchisees and the company contribution, $2 million was raised for St. Jude.
