Pizza for a Purpose: Joe Corbi’s Fundraising Products to be Sold for the Lisa Slaymaker Benefit


(PRLEAP.COM) Lancaster, PA, October 12, 2007— Joe Corbi’s (http://www.joecorbi.com/) has announced a partnership to assist in raising funds for the Slaymaker family. Friends of the Slaymaker family approached Joe Corbi’s about creating a coordinated community fundraiser called “Pizza for a Purpose’ that will raise funds for the Slaymaker Family. Lisa Slaymaker was tragically killed in an automobile accident on August 30, 2007.

Lisa Slaymaker is survived by her husband, Irwin, who was severely injured in the accident, and four daughters ages 24, 21, 15, and 12. Twenty-one-year-old daughter, Cori, has leukodystrophy, an inherited neurological disorder marked by progressive deterioration of the brain’s white matter.

All funds raised through this benefit will help cover the funeral costs of Lisa Slaymaker, support general care for one daughter who has leukodystrophy, and help pay for the two youngest daughters’ educations.

Caring for a family member with leukodystrophy requires support for special needs, which can often be costly for the family. This fundraiser will help with the costs of care and expenses associated Lisa Slaymaker’s passing.

Joe Corbi’s is a food fundraising company that has raised over $150 million for community organizations across the United States. Organizations that use Joe Corbi’s Fundraising include sports teams, youth groups, scouts, choirs, churches, and schools. Food products include pizza kits, cookie dough, calzones, pretzels, and other specialty foods products.
