Pizza Hut is starting an online fundraiser for Toua Xiong, the delivery driver who was shot to death on Aug. 6th. Eighty stores across the Minnesota are donating part of their profits to Xiong’s family for his memorial fund. A full page in Friday’s Minneapolis Star Tribune advertises the event. For a week starting on Monday, Pizza Hut will donate 20 percent of its online sales to Xiong’s family.
“It’s as if it happened to one of our own family members, so you can imagine how everyone feels. We are a very close team and it affects us all,” said Fred Burmer, vice president of Pizza Huts in Minnesota.Pizza Hut has never done a fundraiser like this before. The money will be used for a traditional Hmong funeral, which lasts for three days, Xiong’s family said.
