DONATOS Savannah, a locally owned pizza company located at 5405 Waters Avenue, announced the opening of their second location on Whitemarsh Island. A ribbon cutting to commemorate their opening was held Wednesday, June 28th at their new location at 111 Jazie Drive, Savannah 31410.

DONATOS Co-Owner Adam Kurena states, “A part of our local vision was to open a location on the islands. With a large family community consisting of locals and traveling tourists, our second location will serve all of Whitemarsh and Wilmington Islands along with Thunderbolt GA. We look forward to building a strong community relationship with the island's residents, businesses and nonprofits.”

Part of Donatos Mission and Promise is to be a good neighbor. In fact, Donatos comes from the Latin word for “to give a good thing.” That means giving back to the local community through a well-planned, strategic, focused initiative and being a strong support for the community. “Working with the island's community and our local partners with the same vision helps create a stronger, supportive community,” adds Kurena.

The grand opening celebration had a special appearance from Savannah Ghost Pirates mascot Davy signing autographs and a 10 percent discount for anyone who attended in Ghost Pirates attire. Also in attendance were community partners and supporters from Veteran Carriers, Blessings in a Bookbag, Agenda Latina, Habitat for Humanity, Vernon Donovan State Farm, MGreen Productions, The Dive Savannah, Yancey Brothers, Post 500 Commander James Putney, Chatham County Police Department, LeAndrea Mikell and Mia Mance.
