Fast-casual pizza brand Donatos has partnered with Habitat for Humanity for a second year, according to a press release.

The partnership falls under the housing pillar of the Donatos Family Foundation's three-pillar giving back efforts, which also include hunger and health initiatives.

The Donatos Family Foundation has pledged to raise at least $100,000 for Habitat for Humanity to be distributed among local Habitat affiliates in communities near Donatos restaurant locations. Customers will be encouraged to round up when they place an order online, and the brand will donate $1 for every snickerdoodle cookie sold during the fundraising timeframe of Jan. 30-April 30.

"We are excited to be partnering with Habitat again this year to help them in their efforts to build affordable housing in communities across the country," Jane Grote Abell, executive chairwoman of the board and chief purpose officer at Donatos, said in the press release. "Giving more than we receive is woven into our culture and continuing the Donatos family legacy of giving back supports our mission to promote goodwill through our product, principles, service and people."

"We are thrilled to partner with the Donatos Family Foundation for a second year," Julie Laird Davis, vice president of corporate and cause marketing partnerships at Habitat for Humanity International said in the release. "Putting love into action is deeply woven in our efforts of building homes, communities and hope, and we are grateful to have dedicated partners like Donatos who also share the same vision. We look forward to seeing the impact of this partnership in communities across the U.S."
