GRAB A SUB: HELP LOCAL HUNGER AND CHILDREN’S PROGRAMS

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Feb. 24, 2026 – This March, Jersey Mike’s Subs locations across Canada are joining forces with seven local charities for the 16^th Annual March “Month of Giving” campaign as part of its core mission to give back to the communities it serves.

During the month of March, customers will have the option to round up their purchase to the nearest dollar or donate when placing their order.

The Month of Giving campaign culminates with Jersey Mike’s “Day of Giving” on Wednesday, March 25, when local Jersey Mike’s restaurants will give 100 percent of the day’s sales – not just profit – to the seven charities. This includes orders placed in-store, online or through the app.

Day of Giving is Jersey Mike’s busiest day of the year, when some crews arrive as early as 4 a.m.

Last year, the nine Canadian Jersey Mike’s locations, all in Ontario, raised $100,000 to help local charities fulfill their missions and make a difference in Canadian communities.

This March, Jersey Mike’s Canada is excited to raise even more as it continues to expand across the country.

“We welcome everyone into Jersey Mike’s Subs throughout the month of March, and especially on Day of Giving when 100 percent of sales goes to help seven local charities across Canada,” said Ken Otto, CEO, Redberry. “As we continue to grow—now with 21 Jersey Mike’s locations in Canada—we can make an even greater impact on the local communities we serve through fundraisers like Month of Giving.”

Since Month of Giving began in 2011, Jersey Mike’s has raised more than $143 million for local charities across North America. Since the beginning of 2024, Jersey Mike’s in Canada has raised more than $150,000 for local organizations including more than $100,000 for Make-A-Wish Canada.
