Jersey Mike's Subs and customers across the country rallied to raise $21 million to help over 200 local charities during the company's 13th Annual Month of Giving in March.
Jersey Mike's locations accepted donations throughout the month, building to the company's Day of Giving on March 29, when nearly 2,500 restaurants donated 100% of sales — not just profits — to local charities including hospitals, youth organizations, food banks and more.
"We were humbled to see how our customers came out in droves to support their local charities on Day of Giving," Caroline Jones, SVP, Jersey Mike's Franchise Systems Inc., and daughter of founder Peter Cancro, said in a company press release. "Day of Giving is our busiest day, and we look forward to it all year. Thank you to our customers, franchise owners, team members and charity partners for making a difference!"
The total exceeds the $20 million raised during last year's campaign. Since Month of Giving began in 2011, Jersey Mike's has raised over $88 million for local charities.
