In this episode of In The Arena, we sit down with Donna Bach, a dedicated military spouse, mother, grandmother, and proud entrepreneur who has made a lasting impact on her community.

As part owner of Pizza Platoon and Pizza Platoon Convoy, Donna has blended her passion for hospitality with her deep commitment to community involvement. Not only is she proud to have her family’s pizzeria named the first Purple Heart Association Pizzeria in Louisiana, but she’s also made it her mission to support local non-profits—especially those that assist military families—through fundraising initiatives.
