As part of its February partnership with Make-A-Wish Arizona, Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria is hosting a hands-on pizza-making celebration for local wish children and their families. And if you didn’t love Lou Malnati’s pizza, a classic Chicago chain, before, you will now, knowing how they’re making a difference in the lives of children.
Guests will step behind the counter to roll dough, add toppings and bake heart-shaped pizzas alongside Lou Malnati’s staff. The event highlights a month-long fundraiser, where $1 from every heart-shaped pizza sold supports Make-A-Wish Arizona and helps grant wishes for children facing critical illnesses.
This evening will feature Sutton, a 13-year-old Arizona wish kid who designed the campaign t-shirt worn by staff throughout the fundraiser. She will be onsite and available for interviews, along with representatives from both Lou Malnati’s and Make-A-Wish Arizona.
WHEN: Tuesday, February 18, 2026 from 5:30 – 7 p.m.
WHERE: Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria – Scottsdale
