Rehoboth Beach, Del. -  Grotto Pizza presented a check for $3,000 to Delaware Boots on the Ground,   a non-profit organization that assists and encourages military members and families during deployment and peacetime by matching services to needs.  The monies raised by Grotto Pizza came from the donation of a percentage of sales on June 30 and July 2 in all restaurant locations.  Dominick A. Pulieri, President, matched the contributions that were raised for this worthwhile cause. 

“It was personally very easy for me to join Jill Biden, in helping to raise funds for "Boots on the Ground," said Dominick A. Pulieri.  “As an honorary commander at Dover Air Force Base, I have come to personally know many of our men and women in uniform. Not only are our troops in uniform facing very difficult situations, but the families that are left at home are also facing challenges without adequate resources. Being separated from your loved ones is tough enough, but dealing with all of the uncertainties is a whole different situation.”
 
“I believe each of us should help support causes such as "Boots on the Ground," noted Pulieri.  We can become complacent while our troops are fighting a war abroad and we are comfortably enjoying our freedom here at home.  I highly commend Jill and hope others will join in such a noble cause.”
