A recent Ridley High School graduate who helped revive a struggling Ridley pizza shop has been rewarded by a pair of local businessmen for his efforts, writes Peg DeGrassa for the Daily Times.

Nick Mniecznikowski was recently presented a $3,000 check before his graduation. The money will help fund his education at the Williamson College of the Trades in the fall.

Back in February, Mniecznikowski learned that business was slow at Eric’s Pizza Shop on Chester Pike, so he encouraged people in a Facebook post to purchase a pizza from the struggling business. The post went viral and Eric’s Pizza, owned by Eric Brooks, has been doing a booming business since.

Mike McIntyre, owner of ProAction Restoration in Holmes, and Nick Lanzetta of Lanzetta Landscaping in Secane decided to reward the high school senior for helping a local small business succeed.

“We wanted to pay it forward to him in a way and reward him for his efforts in the name of all local small business owners who could use a guy like Nick vouching for them and encouraging neighbors to support their community businesses,” McIntyre said.
