 Make-A-Wish Connecticut is joining forces with 36 Jersey Mike’s Subs locations in Connecticut for the 15th Annual March “Month of Giving” campaign to support local charities. During the month of March, customers will have the option to round up their purchase to the nearest dollar or donate $1, $3, or $5 when placing their order. 

The Month of Giving campaign culminates in Jersey Mike’s “Day of Giving” on Wednesday, March 26, when local Jersey Mike’s restaurants will give 100 percent of the day’s sales – not just profit – to Make-A-Wish Connecticut. Additional Connecticut Jersey Mike’s locations will support:

On Day of Giving, local Jersey Mike’s owners and operators throughout the country will donate their resources and every single dollar that comes in — whether in-store, online or through the app — to more than 200 different charities including hospitals, youth organizations, food banks and more. Day of Giving is Jersey Mike’s busiest day of the year, when some crews arrive as early as 4 a.m. 

This March, Jersey Mike’s hopes to exceed last year’s record-breaking national fundraising total of $25 million to help local charities striving to fulfill their missions and make a difference. 

“I would like to extend a personal invitation to you and your family to visit Jersey Mike’s Subs throughout the month of March, and especially on Day of Giving when 100 percent of sales goes to help a great local cause,” said Peter Cancro, Jersey Mike’s founder and CEO, who started the company when he was only 17 years old. 

Since Month of Giving began in 2011, Jersey Mike’s has raised more than $113 million for local charities
