Back to School at Blaze: Free Pizza to Local High School Students


Blaze Fast Fire’d Pizza, the fast-casual artisanal pizza concept known for its chef-driven menu and casually hip restaurants, will offer FREE build-your-own pizzas to all current and incoming high school students who present valid high school identification from Sunday, August 6 to Friday August 11 at each of its six Arizona locations, including:

  • Central Phoenix: 5120 N. Central Ave. Phoenix, AZ 85012
  • North Phoenix: 950 E. Bell Road Ste.190 Phoenix, AZ 85022
  •  Tempe: 105 W. University Dr. Tempe, AZ 85281
  • Avondale: 10155 W. McDowell Road #103 Avondale, AZ 85392
  •  Glendale: 7870 W Bell Rd, Glendale, AZ 85308
  •  Tucson: 5615 E. Broadway Blvd., Tucson, AZ 85711

“Blaze Pizza is looking to build strong roots within the community and that starts with our youth,” said Joe Sawyer, Blaze Pizza franchisee in Arizona. “We want to be the first to welcome students back to school by offering them a pizza on the house, but our commitment doesn’t end there. We also offer an in-restaurant fundraiser program that returns 20% of the event’s proceeds back to school groups and other local organizations year-round.”
