Papa John's Founder Delivers To Troops

(Monday, February 16, 2009) - Papa John's founder John Schnatter visited Kuwait last week, helping to serve pizza to more than 250 troops stationed at Camp Buehring in Kuwait.

The event was organized by Khalid Alrashid, Papa John's franchisee in Kuwait, who brought all the equipment necessary to make the pizzas, including an oven, to the base. After serving the troops at Camp Buehring, the group made an additional delivery to the local USO.

"It was an honor serving the troops and giving them a little taste of home," said Schnatter. "I think sometimes we take for granted the sacrifice our troops and their families make so that we are able to enjoy our freedom at home. On behalf of all of Papa John's, this was just one small way of saying thank you."
