Independent Journalism in Denver Needs You
We need to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Live Basil Pizza, a homegrown chain created by the folks behind Smashburger and Tom’s Urban, has dubbed today Free Fresh Pizza Day. And that means that all day today, the fast-casual concept will be offering free pizzas to customers.

Yes, there’s a catch.
From 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. today, walk into any one of Live Basil Pizza’s five locations — the original in South Denver and a second in Denver, one in Federal Heights, one in Glendale and one in Lakewood — and you can get a free pizza: one of the thirteen signature pizzas or a build-your-own version. In lieu of payment, Live Basil is encouraging guests to make a donation to the local non-profit Jessie’s Homes for Families, which helps the homeless community of Denver.
And that’s a deal you don’t want to refuse, because Live Basil will match any donations made today.
Learn more about Jessie’s Homes here and visit livebasilpizza.com for more information and store locations.
