Community Giving

“I am so grateful to have been able to build a company that has enjoyed incredible success. I feel strongly that it is our obligation to give back as much as we can. It’s just part of who we are.” – Sam Covelli, CEO of Covelli Enterprises

  • Covelli Enterprises works with many non-profit organizations to create cause campaigns designed to fundraise to meet various community needs.
  • We have major market-wide campaigns devoted to raising funds for autism and breast cancer. The funds from our annual Pieces of Hope for Autism cookie campaign have exceeded $2 million. The events devoted to breast cancer, including the Pink Ribbon Bagel sales and the annual Youngstown Panerathon, have raised more than $6.5 million. We recently launched our first Chip in for Children’s Mental Health program in 2021. We also continuously support veterans and local hospitals. Covelli has formed strategic alliances with numerous local organizations to help raise funds to make a true difference where we work and live.
  • At the end of each day, our bakery-cafes donate all unsold bread and baked goods to local hunger relief agencies and charities.
