    John Stetson CEO of Stoner's Pizza Joint

    On this episode of the Join Justin Podcast, we speak with John Stetson, CEO of Stoner’s Pizza Joint. Learn about the great work John and Stoner’s Pizza Joint is doing to help the community during the COVID pandemic. We also discuss how Stoner’s Pizza Joint is helping dogs and cats find forever homes. Serial Entrepreneur John Stetson, the owner of Stoner’s Pizza Joint Fort Lauderdale, has always been a pet lover. As a young child, his family worked with a local animal rescue to adopt his beloved bichon mix Max who was his dog for over 19 years. With that love of animals that was instilled by early years, he decided to reach out to the Humane Society of Broward County, and a partnership was born! Each week over 500 flyers are included on pizza boxes to promote dogs, cats, and other pets currently available for adoption. In an effort to further promote #adoptdontshop, John generously offers a free year of pizza (1 large pizza per week) to anyone who adopts a pet from the flyer and sends in a picture. Stoner’s Pizza Joint is best known for stepping up during the COVID-19 quarantine and committing to donate 10,000 pizza slices to those in need. What started as a need to help students who didn’t have lunch during quarantine, has since expanded to include medical staff, first responders, and families that are food insecure. They supported numerous organizations including, the Salvation Army, Broward Health, Peanut Butter & Jelly Project, Covenant House Florida, Arc Broward, Memorial Regional Hospital, Hope South Florida, FLITE Center, Broward County Public Schools, Mobile Pantry of Broward, to name a few. This past election day, Stoner’s Pizza Joint gave away complimentary pizza at the ArtServe voting location. The hope was to encourage people to come out, enjoy some delicious pizza (socially distant of course), wait their turn if needed, and most importantly - VOTE. Pizza with its tasty dough and loaded with gooey cheese can bring people together. Stoner’s Pizza Joint Fort Lauderdale is located at 1509 E Las Olas Blvd in Fort Lauderdale. Their menu offers an assortment of specialty pizzas, calzones, strombolis, sandwiches, hickory-smoked chicken wings made daily in-house, freshly prepared salads, and freshly baked desserts. The delivery and takeout focused concept features fresh, high-quality food prepared in-house daily, including proprietary recipes for the pizza dough, sauce, and cheese blend.

    Julia Baird of Strawberry Field Ft Gia Tutalo Mote of Forever Family

    In this episode of the Join Justin Podcast, we have a very special co host, Gia Tutalo Mote of Forever Family we speak with Julia Baird sister of the legendary Beatle John Lennon. Learn about the great work Julia and Strawberry Field is doing to train young people with learning difficulties. We also discuss how being a child in foster care affected John Lennon and how it is still affecting children today. Strawberry Field and the original Victorian house were gifted to The Salvation Army in 1934. In 1936 it was opened as a children’s home for girls, later accepting boys. From then on, for nearly 70 years, it gave some of Liverpool’s most vulnerable children a refuge from turmoil and unhappiness – a safe, calm and spiritual home. Remaining true to the tradition of giving young people every best chance to succeed in life, Strawberry Field is perpetuating this legacy of care and support through a new training hub for young people with learning difficulties and other barriers to employment. With a visitor exhibition exploring the site’s history and links to John Lennon, a café as well as gardens for spiritual reflection, the Strawberry Field site weaves together educational, cultural, heritage and spiritual elements in one site to continue inspiring future generations to come. Forever Family is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to helping children and teens in foster care find permanent, loving homes. Together with its sponsors and media partners, the organization focuses on raising awareness throughout communities about the struggles and misconceptions surrounding kids and teens in foster care, while connecting families with their local foster care agencies.
