On this episode of the Join Justin Podcast, we speak with John Stetson, CEO of Stoner’s Pizza Joint. Learn about the great work John and Stoner’s Pizza Joint is doing to help the community during the COVID pandemic. We also discuss how Stoner’s Pizza Joint is helping dogs and cats find forever homes. Serial Entrepreneur John Stetson, the owner of Stoner’s Pizza Joint Fort Lauderdale, has always been a pet lover. As a young child, his family worked with a local animal rescue to adopt his beloved bichon mix Max who was his dog for over 19 years. With that love of animals that was instilled by early years, he decided to reach out to the Humane Society of Broward County, and a partnership was born! Each week over 500 flyers are included on pizza boxes to promote dogs, cats, and other pets currently available for adoption. In an effort to further promote #adoptdontshop, John generously offers a free year of pizza (1 large pizza per week) to anyone who adopts a pet from the flyer and sends in a picture. Stoner’s Pizza Joint is best known for stepping up during the COVID-19 quarantine and committing to donate 10,000 pizza slices to those in need. What started as a need to help students who didn’t have lunch during quarantine, has since expanded to include medical staff, first responders, and families that are food insecure. They supported numerous organizations including, the Salvation Army, Broward Health, Peanut Butter & Jelly Project, Covenant House Florida, Arc Broward, Memorial Regional Hospital, Hope South Florida, FLITE Center, Broward County Public Schools, Mobile Pantry of Broward, to name a few. This past election day, Stoner’s Pizza Joint gave away complimentary pizza at the ArtServe voting location. The hope was to encourage people to come out, enjoy some delicious pizza (socially distant of course), wait their turn if needed, and most importantly - VOTE. Pizza with its tasty dough and loaded with gooey cheese can bring people together. Stoner’s Pizza Joint Fort Lauderdale is located at 1509 E Las Olas Blvd in Fort Lauderdale. Their menu offers an assortment of specialty pizzas, calzones, strombolis, sandwiches, hickory-smoked chicken wings made daily in-house, freshly prepared salads, and freshly baked desserts. The delivery and takeout focused concept features fresh, high-quality food prepared in-house daily, including proprietary recipes for the pizza dough, sauce, and cheese blend.
