Be the Magic

02/23/2026

Answer some fun trivia. Maybe win some good food.  A portion of all of the Glass Nickel pizza sales for the month of January and February go directly to be the magic.

We're gearing up for another wild week at the CoolTable. Come join us & see what trivia in Appleton is really like.
Monday: a 7pm game at Glass Nickel Pizza Co. - Appleton. 60$ in gift cards, and an appetizer to be won. And proceeds help out Be the Magic, a local charity that helps women who've aged out of the foster system. It's Pizza with a Purpose!

Tuesday: a 90-minute game at Stuc's Pizza - Appleton. Game starts at 7pm & is a bit more fast paced. It's a real good time, with great service, great food & 45$ in gift cards to win.

Wednesday: OHP! The word is out to all the CoolKids about Vault 202 Brewery and Taproom's 6:30pm trivia game & it's getting cozy inside. Pizza, wings, in-house made brews & 1$ Milk Tubes. Add that to more gift cards to be won, & we have your Wednesdays covered.

Thursday: the flagship - McFleshman's Brewing Co. We're rockin' State Street at 6:30pm every Thursday. Excellent brews, fabulous vibes, and a trivia host who's out of breath by the end of the night. It's the best Thursday night one could ask for.

No matter where you play, have a great week. We'll see you out & about at the games.

Glass Nickel Pizza with a Purpose Fundraiser

The Glass Nickel Pizza with a Purpose fundraiser is proud to be working with Be The Magic during the months of January and February at our Appleton and Menasha locations.

Be The Magic is a local nonprofit based in Neenah that supports young women aging out of the foster care system. Their mission focuses on helping these young women transition into independent adulthood by providing stability, mentorship, resources, and a strong support network during a critical stage of life.

Through our Pizza with a Purpose initiative, Glass Nickel Pizza is committed to giving back to the communities we serve. Every pizza purchased during this fundraiser helps support Be The Magic and the important work they do to create brighter futures for young women in our area.

We are honored to partner with an organization making a meaningful, local impact and thank our guests for helping us turn pizza into purpose.

Today was a bittersweet moment. One family said goodbye to their beloved pop-up camper… the place where they made years of memories, laughter, and adventures together (They generously passed it on so that it could create new magic in the world).
That camper is now part of Be the Magic. We’ll be transforming it into our food stand, where dirty sodas and soft pretzels will help raise funds for young women aging out of foster care.
It’s not just a camper… it’s a legacy of joy being carried forward into a mission of hope and opportunity. We are so honored to give it a new purpose and keep the spirit of its memories alive.
Stay tuned for the transformation!

✨ Exciting News for Be the Magic! ✨
We are beyond grateful to share that someone has donated their pop-up camper (in wonderful working condition I might add) to help us bring our fundraising vision to life!
This camper will soon be transformed into our Be the Magic food stand, where we’ll be serving up fun treats like dirty sodas and soft pretzels with dips and toppings. Every dollar raised will go directly toward supporting young women aging out of foster care… helping them with therapy, life skills, and hope for the future.
We’ll be picking up the camper this Thursday evening, and we can’t wait to start this next chapter of growth for Be the Magic!
From the bottom of our hearts… thank you for believing in the magic of community, generosity, and living authentically!

Brat Fry Success! ✨🌭
A huge thank you to everyone who came out, donated, and supported Be the Magic at our brat fry! Because of you, the event was a wonderful success. From the laughter and conversations to the generosity shown, we are reminded once again of how strong our community is when we come together.
Every dollar raised helps us move closer to our mission of empowering young women aging out of foster care with mentoring, career training, and life skills… and eventually a building to house these young women.
We couldn’t have done it without YOU… our volunteers, supporters, and community members who showed up with open hearts (and appetites!).
Stay tuned for what’s next… we’ve got more exciting plans in the works!
Together, we’re truly making magic happen. ✨
