A New Jersey pizza chain is selling pizzas featuring the colors of the Ukrainian flag, with proceeds going to help refugees, according to a New York Post report.

Tony Baloney's, which was founded in 2009 by owner Mike Hauke, is selling a pizza that's half blue, half yellow to help support refugees from the war in Ukraine.

"People were telling me not to throw my hat into the ring like this is some kind of political statement," Hauke told the news outlet. "This is not about politics."

Hauke said he's sold more than 500 of the pizzas, which are available on the website Goldbelly for $99 for two. Sales proceeds go to World Central Kitchen.
