RALEIGH, CARY, WAKE FOREST, APEX, FUQUAY-VARINA, GOLDSBORO, FAYETTEVILLE, and WILMINGTON, NC – Papa Murphy’s Take ‘n’ Bake Pizza is asking pizza lovers to join them in raising money for a good cause to kick off a summer of giving. By partnering with UNC Children’s Hospital Monday, June 21, 2021, through Sunday, June 27, 2021, Papa Murphy’s will donate 33% of sales from that week in-store and online to support UNC Children’s Hospital. Customers will need to mention “UNC Children’s’, show a post on their mobile device, or enter code “UNC33” when they order online to participate.
Including walk-in, call-in, and online orders, the week-long initiative aims to raise awareness and supportive fundraising for UNC Children’s Hospital which cares for more than 70,000 children from all 100 counties in North Carolina each year. As a top-tier academic medical center, UNC Children’s Hospital upholds a four-tiered mission to “CARE,” aligning clinical care, advocacy, research, and education to deliver world-class family-centered care—always regardless of a family’s ability to pay.
“Our partners at UNC Children’s Hospital did a wonderful job serving the community during the pandemic and we hope our efforts will allow them to continue to make an impact,” shares Richard Averitte, Vice President of Marketing for Papa Murphy’s franchisee Twickenham Holdings LLC.

“We are so thankful for the continued community support we have received from Papa Murphy’s Pizza. Having the support of community partners like Papa Murphy’s means so much to our hospital, families and kids.” says Cameron Shoaf, Coordinator of Special Events at UNC Children’s Hospital. “From spirit nights, to Pizza for Peds, and the We’re on Your Side campaign, to the upcoming spirit week for UNC Children’s, they have been and continue to be a true partner and supporter of our children’s hospital. They are always ready and willing to ‘Say Yes’ and help in whatever way they can. Through the just over $5,081.26 they have donated to our ‘Say Yes’ Fund to date, we have been able to help many of our families in need. The UNC Children’s “Say Yes” Fund supports the hospital’s greatest needs at any given moment. While we proudly offer care regardless of a family’s ability to pay, unfortunately, many families’ financial strains get worse when their child is hospitalized. We are able to provide assistance to families who need help making ends meet while their child is under our care by purchasing medical equipment for children with special needs, giving parking and meal vouchers while a child is undergoing treatment, or funding a research project to find better treatments. The flexibility of this fund allows us to adapt to an ever-changing health care environment, ensuring we meet whatever challenge may lie ahead for our patients.”
Moving forward, every third week of the month, Papa Murphy’s will be partnering with a different charity to donate 33% of their sales for that week.
