CONGRATULATIONS NELLY’S ITALIAN CAFE

Putting community first

Danielle and Ryan Hall have been serving customers for ten years—and they’ve been serving the community for just as long. For the Halls, that’s business as usual. Their broad contribution to the community is easy with a supportive staff, they say, and is well deserving of our recognition. With their prize earnings, the Halls plan to continue to deliver smiles, support and pizzas to the local children’s home, schools, sports teams and the Well Outreach (which feeds the hungry in their community). They also plan to make improvements to their store.  

The animals have their hearts

The Halls will also continue to support Maury County Animal Services. They began their involvement with the shelter by putting flyers of adoptable furry and friendly faces on every pizza box. And within weeks of starting the program, one very lucky dog was adopted by a very caring customer. This #PizzaForPups program also awarded a $50 donation to the shelter when anyone brought the flyer in and adopted any dog—there were 20 within the first couple weeks. That’s a lot to wag about! 

And since taking care of staff pays off through exceptional customer service, the Halls plan to reward their employees, too. It’s a team effort every day and without their staff it couldn’t be done—and we couldn’t agree more. Congratulations to Danielle, Ryan and the entire Nelly’s Italian Café—you’ve made a difference.
