Giusto is bringing back its popular “Buy One, Give One” holiday promotion in partnership with the MLK Center. When you buy a full lasagna, Giusto donates one to the center, helping them fight hunger and build community.

The promotion kicks off November 18, with the first pickup day on November 25. You can order lasagnas for $75 each, plus tax, by calling 401-324-7400. They offer both meat and vegetarian options.

Stephanie Davis, a Giusto representative explains, “The vegetarian option is a mushroom bolognese, while the meat bolognese is made with beef and pork shoulder. Both come with bechamel, parmesan, and pecorino.”

The lasagnas are ready to bake, but if you prefer, you can ask for hot pickup. Orders can be ready in as little as 24 hours.

The promotion will run again for the December holidays. The last day to order is December 22, with final pickup on December 23.

Want to donate without buying? Giusto will charge $75 and donate two lasagnas to the MLK Center on your behalf.

The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Center, at 20 Dr. Marcus Wheatland Blvd. in Newport, does great work promoting health, fighting hunger, supporting families, educating children, and engaging seniors.

You can find Giusto at 4 Commercial Wharf.
