Postponed Wedding? Domino’s® Has a Rain Check Registry for That

ANN ARBOR, Michigan, June 25, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (NYSE: DPZ) knows that wedding planning is exhausting. Replanning a wedding due to a pandemic is twice as exhausting. Now friends and family can send couples pizza to show their support with Domino’s new Rain Check Registry, on <a target="_blank"…

ANN ARBOR, Michigan, June 25, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (NYSE: DPZ) knows that wedding planning is exhausting. Replanning a wedding due to a pandemic is twice as exhausting. Now friends and family can send couples pizza to show their support with Domino’s new Rain Check Registry, on dominosweddingregistry.com

Many couples have had to postpone their weddings due to the circumstances around COVID-19. To help make their days brighter, Domino’s created a Rain Check Registry where friends and family can send them some pizza love through eGift cards.

Domino’s Rain Check Registry is filled with everything the pizza-loving couple will need to get through long days of creating change-the-date cards, negotiating with florists and rescheduling honeymoon plans. Gift card packages include «Virtual Bachelorette Party» and «Vendor Call-A-Thon» among other postponed wedding registry options.

«We created Domino’s Wedding Registry because pizza-loving couples have shared over the years how Domino’s pizza was a part of their big day,» said Kate Trumbull, Domino’s vice president of advertising. «With so many weddings being postponed or scaled back in 2020, we knew those couples might need some extra love from those around them, because everything is better with pizza.»

Couples who choose to create a Rain Check Registry can select from packages including «Small Wedding Now, Big Celebration Later» or even «Bridal Shower, but Make it Virtual,» depending on what twists and turns their wedding plans have taken. After the couple creates their registry, they can share their wish list with family and friends on social media or with a unique URL. All gifts will be delivered to the lucky recipients as Domino’s eGift cards.

Even if a couple isn’t registered, supportive family and friends can still send eGift cards from any Rain Check or Wedding Registry packages at dominosweddingregistry.com.

About Domino’s Pizza®
Founded in 1960, Domino’s Pizza is the largest pizza company in the world based on retail sales, with a significant business in both delivery and carryout pizza. It ranks among the world’s top public restaurant brands with a global enterprise of more than 17,000 stores in over 90 markets. Domino’s had global retail sales of over $14.3 billion in 2019, with over $7.0 billion in the U.S. and nearly $7.3 billion internationally. In the first quarter of 2020, Domino’s had global retail sales of over $3.4 billion, with over $1.7 billion in the U.S. and over $1.7 billion internationally. Its system is comprised of independent franchise owners who accounted for 98% of Domino’s stores as of the end of the first quarter of 2020. Emphasis on technology innovation helped Domino’s achieve more than half of all global retail sales in 2019 from digital channels, primarily online ordering and mobile applications. In the U.S., Domino’s generates over 65% of sales via digital channels and has developed several innovative ordering platforms, including those developed for Google Home, Facebook Messenger, Apple Watch, Amazon Echo and Twitter – as well as Domino’s Hotspots®, an ordering platform featuring over 200,000 unique, non-traditional delivery locations. In June 2019, through an announced partnership with Nuro, Domino’s furthered its exploration and testing of autonomous pizza delivery. In late 2019, Domino’s opened the Domino’s Innovation Garage adjacent to its headquarters in Ann Arbor, Michigan to fuel continued technology and operational innovation – while also launching its GPS technology, allowing customers to follow the progress of the delivery driver from store to doorstep.

But what about those who have also suffered but have no voice to tell it?

New IHME COVID-19 Model Forecasts Latin American, Caribbean Nations Will See Nearly 388,300 Deaths by October 1

SEATTLE, June 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington is forecasting nearly 388,300 people will die from COVID-19 in Latin American and Caribbean nations by October 1.

<img id="prnejpg079aleft" title=" " border="0" alt=" " align="middle"…

SEATTLE, June 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington is forecasting nearly 388,300 people will die from COVID-19 in Latin American and Caribbean nations by October 1.

Brazil is expected to exceed 166,000 deaths and Mexico 88,000. Six other nations are each predicted to exceed 10,000: Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, and Peru. In contrast, 15 nations, including Paraguay, Uruguay, and Belize are each expected to have fewer than 1,000 deaths.

«Several Latin American countries are facing explosive trajectories, while others are containing infections effectively,» said IHME Director Dr. Christopher Murray. «I cannot overemphasize the imperative of mitigation measures, such as mask wearing and social distancing, especially since South American nations are facing increasing infections due to seasonality of COVID-19, an important factor contributing to the transmission of the virus.»

IHME’s new forecasts model deaths from the virus if countries impose social distancing mandates for six weeks at the point when deaths reach 8 per million people, comparing that to a scenario if no action is taken. The percentage of people wearing masks when leaving their home is also a key consideration.

«These factors are vital in our projections and highlight how many lives can be saved,» Murray said.  

He noted that the number of deaths is certain to continue to rise in nations where mandates on mask wearing and social distancing are relaxed. In contrast, Murray stated transmission might be reduced by as much as 50% in communities where individuals are wearing masks when leaving their homes, either voluntarily or by mandate.

The forecasts by nation: 

Southern, Tropical, and Andean Latin America

  • Argentina: 24,721 deaths (range of 9,386 to 61,163)
  • Chile: 25,344 deaths (range of 18,094 to 34,509)

  • Peru: 36,210 deaths (range of 28,145 to 48,617)
  • Brazil: 166,362 deaths (range of 135,538 to 208,079)
  • Paraguay: 271 deaths (range of 27 to 1,952)

OAKLAND, Calif., June 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Hispanics in Philanthropy (HIP), a transnational network of foundations, donors and nonprofits; together with <a target="_blank"…

OAKLAND, Calif., June 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Hispanics in Philanthropy (HIP), a transnational network of foundations, donors and nonprofits; together with Ureeka, a community where underrepresented business owners gain unprecedented access to the expertise needed to grow their business; and The Flo Lab, a business advisory group for emerging Latinx companies; today launch «Together We Win» / «Juntos Ganamos», a campaign geared towards encouraging consumers to support small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) impacted during this critical time to help ensure their economic survival and the recovery of communities.

The partnership between HIP and Ureeka bridges their respective networks and resources, specifically the PowerUp Fund, which leverages philanthropic dollars against private capital to build power and spur economic growth for Latino communities, and 1863 Ventures, a business development program designed to narrow the gap between entrepreneurship and equity. The union creates a power-in-numbers approach that helps drive the long-term solutions sought for Black and Latino-owned SMB owners most impacted by COVID-19.

«The growth of Black and Latino-owned SMBs is impressive, considering the systemic and structural barriers that have existed for generations. However, we have reached a point where the economic disparity and inequity is impacting our collective health and future,» said Nancy Santiago, Co-Founder of the PowerUp Fund, HIP Senior Advisor and Community Impact Lead for Ureeka. «We seek to close this gap through our new collaboration with Ureeka, and with the financial power consumers bring to our re-opened economies. We urge them to select a SMB for their goods and services when it is time to make a purchase.»

COVID-19 Black & Latino-owned SMB Community Statistics

Leading by Example

Despite the challenges COVID-19 presents for Black and Latino-owned SMBs, «Together We Win» has already helped these targeted businesses continue to set themselves up for success during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Baiser Beauty, a women-owned holistic skincare and beauty brand handcrafted in Miami using organic certified ingredients, is an SMB that benefited from the joint venture of HIP and Ureeka. Additionally, Shop Latinx, a curated marketplace featuring one-of-a-kind, quality products from Latinx creators, artists and SMB owners to showcase their products online, was also a financial award recipient from the partnership, provided by the PowerUp Fund.

«Ureeka’s business development programs are designed to bridge the gap between entrepreneurship and equity, and our programs seek to accelerate new majority entrepreneurs from high potential to high growth,» said Melissa L. Bradley, Ureeka Co-Founder and 1863 Ventures Founder. «Believing in the power of our communities and the power of our shared experiences, ‘Together We Win’ is a movement designed to shift the way we think about our individual choices, how these new majority businesses have the greatest potential to thrive, and the impact their success has to create ripple effects within these different small business segments.»

Investors + «Together We Win» = SMBs’ Success

There is no magic in the formula to help Black and Latino-owned SMBs succeed. What is needed are accountable individuals, corporate and organization decision-makers investing time, money and energy into creating a long-term, sustainable impact.

Uniting as one cohesive, yet diverse community which represents the new reality of the social and economic fabric of America can help ensure Black and Latino-owned SMBs survive, thrive and grow during and after the COVID-19 pandemic through intentional decisions and actions supporting these enterprises.
