sales at every Jersey Mike's from coast to coast Wednesday will go to charity. This
year, the New Jersey sub shop is highlighting the Special Olympics.
Jersey Mike's, a staple in the sub industry for 66 years, is
sponsoring this summer's Special Olympics nationals in Orlando. The
sub chain also designated the charity for today's 12th annual
Day of Giving.
“We prepare for this all year long, all month long,” says Jersey
Mike's Vice President Caroline Jones. “Today is our
day, 100% of sales from every single Jersey Mike's goes to the USA Special Olympics
games.”
Jersey Mike's was trying to beat last year's record of $15 million
in charitable sales.
“The amount they are going to be
able to raise to help the special Olympics, it's just truly inspiring,” says
Point Pleasant Beach Mayor Paul Kanitra.
The Day of Giving has collectively raised more than $47 million
for charities in its 12-year history.
