Dave DuBois and his wife Joy DuBois, both of Durham, stand in front of the Little Caesers Love Kitchen, a pizza kitchen on wheels that travels across the United States and Canada meeting the needs of the hungry, the homeless and disaster survivors. The DuBoises, who own Little Caesers stores in Topsham, Bath, Auburn, Lewiston and Augusta, recently worked to provide approximately 1,000 free meals to the Hope Have Gospel Mission in Lewiston and the Bread of Life Ministries in Augusta. “Joy and I were excited to support this program with food and staff to provide a quality meal for people who otherwise may not get one,” DuBois said.
