Who we are


Our Foundation

Dhanam Foundation Inc. was co-founded by siblings Anish and Aashrita Kaza in 2024, to inspire philanthropy within their community.

The Foundation’s journey began with Anish’s simple yet powerful idea: combining his love for pizza (his comfort food), his interest in technology and passion for giving. This vision led to the creation of Pizza for a Purpose, an intuitive app that enables restaurants, grocery stores and individual donors (through selecting a pizza restaurant of their choice in the app) to donate pizza to charities directly making generosity more accessible and impactful. He teamed up with Aashrita to help bring the idea to life.

Our Mission

To foster a culture of giving, deeply rooted in the values of ‘Dhanam’. In Sanskrit ‘Dhanam’ embodies the spirit of compassion and generosity.

Pizza for a Purpose

Our user-friendly smartphone app, Pizza for a Purpose, facilitates the donation of pizzas from restaurants and grocery stores to local charities. Our platform streamlines the donation process, allowing restaurants to specify pickup times, quantities of pizzas to donate, and select nearby charity organizations to receive their contributions.  Upon charity pickup, the restaurants receive a tax-deductible receipt.
 
The alarming statistics on national food insecurity, affecting over 47 million people in the U.S., including 1 in 5 children, highlight the urgency of our mission. This problem is just too big to ignore and requires collective action. We invite you to join us in our mission to combat food insecurity and bridge the gap to self-sustenance for those in need.  Together, we can create a brighter and a more nourished future for all.
 

Our Impact

Pizza for a Purpose provides nourishment and hope to individuals and families facing hunger, strengthening communities and working towards a hunger-free future.

Testimonials

“We are extremely fortunate to have been chosen by Pizza for a Purpose to be the recipient of hundreds of donated pizza pies from local restaurants that go to feed families in need in our community. The founder of this wonderful organization, Anish Kaza, has a heart for families that struggle with food insecurity and developed this program to help partner with organizations like Boca Helping Hands to aid in fulfilling our mission. Anish has used ingenuity and compassion to develop a meaningful opportunity for local restaurants and community non-profits to join together in impacting the community and is a great example for others in his generation to emulate. Thanks, Anish!”
Bill HarperSenior Director of Operations, Boca Helping Hands, Boca Raton
“As the CEO of The Soup Kitchen, I want to express my heartfelt appreciation for Anish’s vision and generosity with Pizza for a Purpose. His app has streamlined the process for restaurants to donate pizza, enabling us to offer more warm meals to those in need. Thanks to Anish’s commitment, a greater number of individuals in our community are receiving the nourishment they truly deserve.”
Marlene MejiaCEO of The Soup Kitchen, Boynton Beach
“Pizza for a Purpose was founded on a vision with the desire to help others by a young man that came into my restaurant in its initial stages in 2023. I was and am still very much committed to the project because I believe in the end result of the app.   This app is easy to use.  We restaurant owners are busy, with little time left for anything else.  This app allows us to plan ahead and schedule donations . I strongly encourage pizza restaurants and grocery stores to join and support our community.  Besides a tax benefit on the donations, there is also a great personal satisfaction to help those in need. We live in the greatest country in the world and seeing hungry children is absolutely devastating. We must do our part to better the future of these children and families.”

“Pizza For A Purpose is a great way to give back to the community. This app makes it easy to donate Pizzas on your schedule and there is no need to deliver the donations, as the pizzas are picked up from your shop.“
