It’s no surprise to anyone that knows me, that I’ll jump at the chance to go to Verde Pizza. Tell me the pizza is for a good cause, and I’ll be the first person in the door. This Monday, a Canton couple (and their team, Diabadass) is doing just that. Verde along with Team Diabadass will be hosting a ‘Drink & Dine for a Diabetes Cure’ event, this Monday, April 13th for 5-9 p.m. 10% of proceeds will go to JDRF to help find a cure for Type 1 diabetes (T1D) (and really, who wants to make dinner on a Monday. They are really doing you a favor.)

Team Diabadass (love the name) will be walking in the JDRF: One Walk on April 18th at M & T Stadium. The goal of the walk is $596,820 and they are almost 1/2 way there! You can donate directly to the team here.

So come out, have a slice and support a great cause! I recommend the Pistacchio e Salsiccia. Hands down, amazing.
