Jersey Mike’s Subs is once again demonstrating its commitment to philanthropy by partnering with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) for a national fundraiser. This initiative aims to support lifesaving research to prevent and cure breast cancer.
A Weekend of Giving
On Saturday, September 28, and Sunday, September 29, 2024, Jersey Mike’s will donate 20 percent of sales from nearly 3,000 locations nationwide to BCRF1. This generous contribution will help fund critical research efforts aimed at combating breast cancer, a disease that affects one in eight women in the United States during their lifetime.
A Longstanding Commitment
Peter Cancro, Founder and CEO of Jersey Mike’s Franchise Systems, Inc., emphasized the personal connection many people have to this cause: “Everyone knows someone close to them who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. We invite you to come into your local Jersey Mike’s this weekend to support lifesaving research and treatment innovations”1.
Supporting Research and Awareness
BCRF President and CEO Donna McKay expressed gratitude for Jersey Mike’s ongoing support: “Jersey Mike’s has had a longstanding commitment to philanthropy. We are grateful for the opportunity to raise awareness of the critical need for research and for the support of our global legion of scientists”1. Since its founding in 1993 by Evelyn H. Lauder, BCRF has been the largest private funder of breast cancer research in the world, significantly contributing to the 43 percent decline in breast cancer deaths1.
Join the Cause
Jersey Mike’s encourages everyone to participate in this fundraiser by visiting their local stores during the designated weekend. By doing so, customers can enjoy their favorite subs while contributing to a cause that aims to save lives and improve the quality of life for those affected by breast cancer.
