Jersey Mike's Subs and its customers raised $4 million in November for Feeding America, a U.S.-based hunger relief organization.

With this donation, in the past three years, Jersey Mike's has donated more than $15 million to Feeding America, helping provide over 150 million meals through the organization's nationwide network of 200 local partner food banks.

"With the help of our customers in communities across the nation, to date, Jersey Mike's has provided over 150 million meals for families in need," Peter Cancro, founder and CEO, Jersey Mike's Franchise Systems Inc., said in a company press release. "Raising up together, we always make a difference."

The weekend of Nov. 18-19, Jersey Mike's donated 20% of sales to Feeding America; $1 helps to provide at least 10 meals secured by Feeding America on behalf of local partner food banks.

"Feeding America is deeply grateful for partners like Jersey Mike's in the movement to end hunger," Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, CEO of Feeding America, said in the release. "Their ongoing commitment to the mission is helping to support communities and nourish futures."

Jersey Mike's Subs has over 2,500 locations.
