Jersey Mike’s Day of Giving campaign helps fight childhood cancer
Jersey Mike's Day of Giving
March 26 is Jersey Mike's Day of Giving and this year they are donating proceeds to CURE for Childhood Cancer. Paul Milliken from Good Day Atlanta stopped by a local Jersey Mike's location to learn more about the mission.
WOODSTOCK, Ga. - If you’ve got an appetite for good food and for giving back to the community, we’ve got good news: stopping by a local Jersey Mike’s Subs for lunch or dinner today can help you satisfy both!
Today is the annual Day of Giving for Jersey Mike’s locations across the country, which means every single dollar raised through sales is donated to a local charity. Here in metro Atlanta, 97 Jersey Mike’s restaurants will give 100% of today’s proceeds to CURE Childhood Cancer, the Atlanta-based nonprofit founded back in 1975 with a mission to fight childhood cancer through funding research and supporting patients and their families.
This is the third year that local Jersey Mike’s owners and operators have chosen CURE Childhood Cancer as their Day of Giving recipient; in 2023, the efforts resulted in a $450,000 donation to the nonprofit. The Day of Giving is the culmination of the restaurant chain’s Month of Giving campaign, which has raised more than $113 million for hundreds of local charities since 2011.
