LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18)– Blaze Fast-Fire’d Pizza has announced that its seven Kentucky/Southern Indiana locations will host an event to support Make-A-Wish on Saturday.

This is the third year Blaze Pizza has hosted this event and has committed to donating 20 percent of proceeds back to the organization with a goal of reaching a $10,000 total donation. By reaching their goal, Blaze Pizza will be able to grant a wish to a Kentucky kid battling a critical illness.

Last year, Blaze Pizza successfully reached their $10,000 goal and therefore will be participating in the “Adopt-A-Wish” program which pairs organizations raising funds with a “wish kid” to grant their wish. Blaze Pizza plans to present this wish (from the funds raised in 2018) to a recipient at their Bowling Green location Saturday.

Blaze Pizza will also have a special gift for all “wish kids” who attend that day. Families need to let the Blaze Pizza team know they’re with Make-A-Wish when they arrive.

All Blaze Pizza locations in Kentucky (Lousiville, Lexington, and Bowling Green) and the Southern Indiana location in Clarksville are participating in the fundraiser during their regular Saturday operating hours.
