A decade-long partnership between World Pizza Champion Tony Gemignani, Slice House, and the San Francisco Giants reached a new milestone this year, raising a record-breaking $101,000 for George Mark Children’s House! The 2026 fundraising campaign officially wrapped up with a special check presentation at Oracle Park, celebrating the generosity of Bay Area pizza lovers and baseball fans who helped make this the partnership’s most successful season yet.
What a way to celebrate ten years of pizza, baseball, and giving back!
A Season That Started at George Mark Children’s House
The celebration began back in May, when Tony Gemignani and Giants pitcher Logan Webb visited George Mark Children’s House for a memorable afternoon with our patients, families, and care teams.
There was plenty of pizza tossing, laughter, and delicious food as Tony and the players spent time with the children, signed autographs, posed for photos, and even helped make pizzas together.
The visit also kicked off another season of the popular Slice House fundraiser, featuring two specialty pizzas created in collaboration with the Giants pitcher.
Logan Webb’s Double Sausage Pizza brought together Italian sausage, pepperoni, and other savory favorites.
For every specialty pizza purchased at participating locations throughout the campaign, $1 from every slice and $6 from every full pizza went directly to George Mark Children’s House.
A Record-Breaking Finish at Oracle Park
From Livermore and Walnut Creek to San Francisco’s Haight Street and North Beach, pizza lovers across the Bay Area and beyond joined the effort.
The campaign brought together participating Slice House locations in Belmont, Castro Valley, Folsom, Fremont, Livermore, Millbrae, Milpitas, Mountain View, San Leandro, Walnut Creek, and San Francisco, along with Tony’s Coal Fired Pizza & Slice House in North Beach.
Every slice added up, culminating in the $101,000 donation celebrated at Oracle Park.
For George Mark Children’s House, these funds help support specialized pediatric palliative care, including respite, transitional, and end-of-life care for children and young adults with serious medical conditions. All care is provided at no cost to families.
Ten Years of Friendship and Generosity
What started as a shared commitment to helping local families has grown into one of George Mark’s most enduring community partnerships.
Over the years, Tony Gemignani and his team have not only raised vital funds but have also made time to visit our House, get to know our families, and share their love of pizza with our children.
Our heartfelt thanks to Tony Gemignani, the entire Slice House team, the San Francisco Giants, and Logan Webb. Your friendship and commitment to George Mark Children’s House over these past ten years mean so much to our organization and the families we serve.
And to everyone who purchased a slice, ordered a whole pizza, or made an additional donation throughout the season, you helped make this record-breaking year possible.
Here’s to ten wonderful years and many more slices of generosity to come!
