But its pizzas aren't the only aspect of Infinitus to make the grade. Instead of the typical tip jar, IPIE has a jar that raises funds for the $180 Million Dream Fund, to "give back to the community by helping educating future generations." Infinitus's dream is to turn IPIE into a national chain that could fund major scholarship program. But in the meantime, anything dropped into that jar will be shared with students.
