Happy Joe's Pizza & Ice Cream has partnered with CORE – Children of Restaurant Employees – to bring relief to restaurant employees facing life-altering health crisis, injury, death or natural disaster, according to a press release.

For every Chocolate Chip Cookie Pizza sold from mid-November through February, the brand will donate $1 to CORE.

"Our goal is to not only serve our guests, but to serve the employees who make our success possible," Tom Sacco, chief happiness officer, said in the press release. "CORE is the perfect non-profit for us to proudly support because we want our Happy Joe's family to have a safety net when faced with life-altering circumstances. Taking care of the less fortunate has always been a big part of Happy Joe's DNA. Partnering with CORE was a natural evolution for us. If we can take care of the less fortunate outside our industry, why not do the same for those inside our industry."

Happy Joe's Pizza & Ice Cream operates three company-owned and 43 franchise locations.
