It’s been a year since this family owned eatery Ali opened Deminka’s Italiano on South Dixie Drive. They’ve been serving up pizza and pasta dishes like lasagna, ravioli, manicotti and stuffed shells, as well as calzones and sandwiches. Just recently Beto Troni and his wife joined owners Advije and Meef Demnika (who are his aunt and uncle) and their son Ali in the kitchen. Beto is the son of the late Jimmy Troni, who owned Jimmy’s Italian Kitchen in Kettering and Deroma Italian Restaurant in Huber Heights.
To celebrate their first anniversary this Sunday, Nov 5th from noon – 8pm all menu items will be 50% off!

Dayton’s Original Pizza Factory, a beloved inner-city Dayton, OH pizzeria serving the local community for over 30 years, has been honored with a $15,000 national grand prize sponsorship in recognition of its outstanding contributions to the Dayton community. The award was granted as part of the 2nd Annual Great Pizza Give Back program sponsored by Hillshire Farm
The $15,000 grand prize will be put to good use as Dayton’s Original Pizza Factory plans to continue and increase its current contributions. They have already used some of the sponsorship award to establish a “Doughlarship” program to provide scholarships at Sinclair Community College to local high school students, and they plan to expand their partnership with local food banks and churches to provide pizza and food for the homeless, and further enhance their support for the Daybreak runaway shelter. Daniels intends to collaborate with local neighborhood development agencies to further support efforts to get people together to work toward bettering their community.

The Humane Society of Greater Dayton is the Miami Valley’s largest no-kill animal welfare agency that started in 1902. The local 501(c)(3) nonprofit is not affiliated with any other organizations on a local or national level and does not receive any government funding. The animal shelter is a 4-star charity and is solely funded by donations and grants. The Humane Society of Greater Dayton works with all domestic animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, hamsters and even horses, goats and pigs. The nonprofit not only adopts out thousands of animals each year and provides low cost veterinary services to the community but also is the only animal shelter with licensed humane agents working 7 days per week making sure pets are safe in the community.
The news of conflict around the world from Ukraine to Israel and Palestine is extremely upsetting. For those looking for some ways to cope and bring more peace into the world, there are two upcoming events that Daytonians can take part in:

The book, titled Into the River, was also written to increase awareness of the importance of water and takes readers on a colorful journey down the Great Miami River.
Imagine a day without water.
“It’s easy to take water for granted, says Mike Ekberg, MCD manager for water monitoring and analysis. “You turn on the faucet, and water flows from the tap. And in this region, we’re fortunate to have an aquifer with about 1.5 trillion gallons of good, clean groundwater for drinking.”
