Sub Headline (Optional): 
Giving back is part of Rounds Bakery's foundation
Pull Quote (200 Character Max): 
“Education is huge for us, because it’s harder to lift yourself out of poverty if you don’t have the tools. And it’s hard to learn when you’re hungry, so we help with food programs.”
Story Summary (100 Character Max): 
In addition to baking up delicious bagels, donuts and not-a-cronuts, the owners and staff members of Rounds Bakery help make our community a better place.

When Sean Cary and Anton Novak purchased Rounds Bakery, they knew they wanted it to have a higher purpose. So they made a commitment to each other that they would treat all of their employees fairly and to give back to the community however they could. 

In the five years since then, they have donated more than 25 tons of food to organizations helping the homeless, as well as more than $200,000 in donations. Oh yeah, and all of their employees are paid a living wage and receive insurance and a retirement plan, among other benefits.

Pull Quote (200 Character Max): 
“Part of our business plan is to grow with our community. We’re nothing without our community, and we’re only as strong as our community.” – Trish Miraglia
Story Summary (100 Character Max): 
When news of the fire and its impact reached the owners of Orange Pedal Cycling in Reno, they began a Camp Fire Donation Drive, open to neighbors, cycling enthusiasts and anyone with a desire to help.

Trish and Stefano Miraglia take their commitment to community as seriously as they take their espresso. Inside their bike shop – Orange Pedal Cycling, located in a strip mall at the corner of Booth and California streets – they’ve built a coffee shop equipped with a La Spaziale espresso machine where they serve LavAzza Italian coffee and select local roasters. The storefront was never intended to be a traditional bike shop, but rather a neighborhood spot to connect with others – over cycling and a good cup of coffee.
