November 07, 2022
Get ready to make a difference in your community while enjoying delicious, handmade Italian food! Our upcoming Giveback Tuesday event will take place at our Rock Hill location on November 22 and support Bilingual International Assistant Services. This nonprofit organization provides multilingual social, mental health, and educational support services in the St. Louis area.
Each month, we’re proud to feature a local nonprofit charity and donate 100% of the earned proceeds from the entire day to the organization. Lunch, dinner, drinks, and carryout are all included. So far, Katie’s Pizza & Pasta Osteria has donated $340,046.58 to nonprofit organizations here in St. Louis.
Funds raised from this Giveback Tuesday event will go toward the nonprofit’s case management for Project Safe Space. This trauma-focused mental health service empowers immigrant and refugee children by equipping them with self-regulation skills, coping skills, and a better understanding of their emotions and needs.
Bilingual International Assistant Services, founded in 2002 by refugee women, serves more than 3,000 people in over 40 languages annually. To meet community needs, the organization offers the services below.
