HARLINGEN, Texas (ValleyCentral) — A two-day fundraiser by Stefanos Brooklyn Pizza has successfully wrapped up in support of Johnny's True Value, following a structure fire that broke out and destroyed the hardware store.
The fundraiser was held on Wednesday and Thursday, reeling in a massive amount of community support throughout the two days.
"Our recent fundraiser for Johnny’s True Value was a huge success, and it wouldn’t have been possible without each and every one of you coming together," Stefanos announced.
Stefanos' fundraiser comes nearly four years after their original location burned down in December 2021.
Through community support, Stefano's was able to reopen its original location and is now paying it forward to help the community that helped them get back on their feet.
"Your support warms my heart and reminds me of the strength we have as a community," Stefano continued.
In two days, Stefanos was able to raise approximately $8,750.

All proceeds will go directly to the employees of Johnny's True Value.
An investigation remains ongoing to determine the cause of the fire.
