Pepperoni Express, located on Worcester Street in North Grafton, received an honorary plaque from the North Grafton Elementary School, grades pre-school through second grade, last Tuesday. 

Over the course of the school year, Pepperoni Express donates approximately 4,800 slices of pizza to Grafton schools for various fundraising initiatives. NGES receives about 150 pizzas over the course of the year, which helps bring in nearly $2,000. To the students at NGES, this makes a difference.

“We support all the schools in Grafton and do our best to help whenever we can,” says Lakis "Lucky'' Theoharis, owner of the restaurant.  “Fundraising, scholarships and supporting school activities is good for the community.” 

Pizza and Game Night, which took place Oct. 14, and the Fun Fair to be held on May 12 are the two events that Pepperoni Express helps with to earn money for the elementary school.

On behalf of the North Grafton Elementary School PTG, a sincere thank you goes out to Lakis Theoharis and Pepperoni Express for the continued support.
