Domino’s will provide 250 free pizzas to individuals and families affected by COVID-19 this Wednesday, May 6, in partnership with Sporting Serves, a newly established philanthropic platform in which Sporting Kansas City provides relief to citizens across Greater Kansas City.
Sporting Serves will see Sporting Kansas City and The Victory Project—the club’s flagship charitable arm—join several community partners to serve Kansas Citians through a variety of programs, including multiple initiatives launched in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Tomorrow afternoon, Domino’s will distribute 250 large pizzas to local citizens at the Kansas City Power & Light District in downtown Kansas City, Missouri. Pizzas will be available via online registration, which will open at 8 a.m. CT Wednesday and remain open until all 250 slots are filled.
Domino’s pizzas will then be available for curbside pickup from 12-2 p.m. outside of No Other Pub, near the intersection of 14th Street and Grand Boulevard. Individuals must register online in advance to receive a specific pickup time. No registrations will be accepted in person.
Wednesday’s initiative aligns with Domino’s “Feed the Need” program, which will see 65 Domino’s stores across Greater Kansas City, Topeka, Wichita and St. Joseph donate 13,000 pizzas within their local communities—including hospitals, medical offices, health departments and grocery stores.

Sporting Serves was established last month in conjunction with the launch of Sporting Community Kitchen, a coordinated effort between Sporting Kansas City, City Foods & Events and Operation BBQ Relief that provides 1,000 free hot meals every weekday to citizens throughout the metropolitan area.
In recent weeks, The Victory Project has donated surgical masks and non-latex gloves to doctors and nurses working at Children’s Mercy Hospital. Additionally, Sporting KC associates are assisting in sorting and delivering PPE to emergency managers in rural communities in Kansas and Missouri to help protect first responders, health care professionals and long-term care facility personnel. Sporting’s training facility is being used as the location for sorting and repacking of the PPE before delivery.
