Inspired by the dedication of store team members and franchisees to their communities and the pure love of feeding people, we established the Marco’s Pizza Foundation in 2022. At the Marco’s Pizza Foundation, we believe pizza can be a powerful source for good to lift people up whether it’s feeding hungry bodies or hungry minds.
OUR PURPOSE
Bringing people together to nurture and nourish the communities we call home:
OUR PILLARS
PREVENTING HUNGER:
Food is central to our work, and we are food service experts. We know that food insecurity and malnourishment affect kids’ and adults’ abilities to learn and work, creating a cycle of scarcity.SUPPORTING EDUCATION:
Access to a quality K-12 education is the gateway to opportunity and the measure of a healthy community.DEVELOPING THE WORKFORCE:
Our team members are our greatest asset, responsible for the growth and success of our business. This is how healthy communities work, too. We invest in skills training and support services that ensure every individual is prepared and ready to work. Every business needs a skilled workforce, and every worker needs reliable employment options.CHAMPIONING ENTREPRENEURSHIP:
As a franchisee-focused organization, we’ve seen entrepreneurship change lives and communities. From new technology and services to fresh mindsets and a gratifying path to financial and personal independence, entrepreneurship offers opportunity in financial and non-financial ways. We believe that small business drives economic and communal well-being.

RISING EVERY DAYTM
At Marco’s, we’ve got each other’s backs. We’re committed to exceptional food, service, and our communities. We are a collective of individuals, whose sum is more powerful than any one of us alone. Together, we can create meaningful change. Let’s restore faith in the power of a collective of individuals. Let’s rise together.
RISE TOGETHER
Our franchisees have a history of making meaningful contributions to their local communities. Franchisee Chamal Kahanawita decided to turn a negative into a positive by offering to provide The Colony, TX food bank free meals after his store was robbed. His generosity inspired others across the country, including TV hosts Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest.OUR BOARD
The Board of the Marco’s Pizza Foundation ensures we are operating with a diverse perspective toward a common goal of strengthening the communities we serve. We are proud to have a Board made of committed Marco’s executives, team members, franchisees, and long-time advocates of the brand.
