Walls of Honor

A partnership with NYC's most famous pizzerias to replace their celebrity portrait walls during the week of 9/11 with photos of surviving first responders. Made at Rethink NY for the FealGoodFoundation.

Honoring New York’s heroes in the most New York way during the week of 9/11.

Walk into any New York City pizza shop, and there’s a good chance you’ll see a wall filled with celebrity photos.

In September 2024, we partnered with the FealGood Foundation to temporarily replace those photos with ones of surviving 9/11 first responders.

Covered by CBS News, FOX, ABC News, New York Nico, Patch, amNewYork, Muse by Clio & AdAge.

Six pizzerias. One cause.

Rival pizzerias Lombardi’s, John’s of Bleecker, Prince Street Pizza, Patsy’s Pizzeria, Juliana’s & Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop all transformed their walls to share these responders’ stories.
