High school senior, Jack Divittorio, told Channel 9 how he’s helping others using the money made from his product.
“We’re divo sauce, we’re a for-purpose enterprise looking to raise proceeds for cognitive disorders like Parkinson’s and Dementia,” Divittorio said, “So we have three sauces, we have a vodka sauce, a spicy vodka sauce, a Colombian aji that my grandmother has been feeding me my whole life and it’s one of my favorite things”.
Providence Day says the goal of this event is to give students the opportunity to practice social responsibility and give back to non-profits in the community.
