Families in Arizona impacted by pediatric cancer are getting a boost to help cover their expenses thanks to Barro’s Pizza and Pepsi.

The restaurant and soda company recently donated proceeds from sales of all lunch specials at Barro’s Pizza locations in the Valley to the Arizona Cancer Foundation for Children, an area non-profit organization that assists families with the high costs and difficult logistics of caring for children while they are receiving cancer treatment. Barro’s and Pepsi donated $40,000 to the organization. With this latest contribution, Barro’s Pizza has raised more than $140,000 for the foundation. The money helps families pay for travel needed for treatment, prescriptions, funeral expenses and other costs.

Barro’s has a location at 3141 E. Indian School Road and several other spots in the state. To learn more about the restaurant, visit barrospizza.com. For more information about the Arizona Cancer Foundation for Children visit azcancerfoundation.org.
