Letter to the Allston-Brighton Tab
December 1, 2006
Bravo to a local business
I wanted to write an open letter to the people of Allston, telling everyone about Osman Osmani and Bravo Pizzeria. Bravo is not just another pizza place!
I am the children's librarian at the Honan-Allston branch of the Boston Public Library. I am constantly planning events and programs and scrambling for money to help make these events the best they can be. Bravo Pizzeria has stepped in countless times to donate pizza and make our events fabulous.
Mr. Osmani has helped out at two of our enormously popular Halloween parties. He brings pizza for the crowd, and serves the hundreds of people with a smile. He has also assisted at our summer kickoff parties. Everyone loves his pizza!
This past summer, Mr. Osmani expressed his concern that he be instrumental in helping the children of the community become great readers. We worked out a system by which I kept track of which children did well with our summer reading program, and these children and their families were invited to a special thank-you lunch at Bravo in September. Mr. Osmani congratulated all of them personally.
We are lucky to have such a business as Bravo in our area. Mr. Osmani and his employees truly care about the children of Allston. I look forward to working with him again and again!
Thank you so much.
