Jersey Mike's Subs will join forces with more than 120 local charities throughout the month of March for the company's 5th Annual March "Month of Giving" fundraising campaign.

Last year's Month of Giving raised $2.1 million for more than 100 different charities nationwide, and to date the program has raised $5 million for hospitals, youth organizations, food banks and more.

The campaign will culminate in the nationwide event, Jersey Mike's "Day of Giving" on March 25 when 100 percent of the day's sales are donated to the local partner charity. For a list of participating restaurants and for more information on charity partners, please visit www.jerseymikes.com/mog.

"I would like to extend a personal invitation to come in and enjoy a Jersey Mike's sub during our Month of Giving," said Peter Cancro, Jersey Mike's founder and CEO, in a company press release.  "This year we hope to raise more than $2.5 million to support these local causes so we can bring hope to all those involved with the charities and make a difference in people's lives."

Started in 1956, the sub chain now has more than 1,300 restaurants open and under development nationwide.
