Domino's announced it will award $500,000 in grants to towns that get inundated by snowy weather during the holiday season.

"At Domino's we've made delivery cars with warming ovens built in, paved roads to get your pizza home hot and in perfect condition, and offered pizza insurance for when anything goes awry," said Joe Jordan, Domino's president of U.S. and global services. "To us, nothing should stand in the way of getting a delicious pizza, including snowy, cold weather. So yes—you heard it right: a pizza company is actually helping to plow roads."

The nomination period will be open from Dec. 4, 2023, - Jan. 21, 2024, and is limited to one submission per email address.
