## Story

Jason’s Deli is accepting nominations through July 27 for its new Community Partners Wish List Giveback to fulfill the Amazon wish lists of 50 deserving teachers, each valued at up to $500, helping provide essential supplies and resources for the upcoming school year.

“At Jason’s Deli, nurturing our communities has always been a part of who we are, and educators are at the heart of every community we serve,” said Kim Collura, vice president of marketing. “Teachers often supplement classroom needs out of their own pockets, and this initiative is designed to help ease that financial burden by providing supplies and resources that directly support their classrooms. Through our 50th anniversary celebration and our Dr Pepper partnership, we’re proud to give back in a meaningful way to the teachers who give so much every day.”

Educators, parents, students and community members can nominate teachers online and through Linktree. Recipients will be selected and notified by July 30, allowing time for wish lists to be fulfilled before classrooms welcome students back for the new school year.

The new initiative builds on the enhancements to Jason's Deli's longstanding Community Partners Program, which provides year-round support to K-12 schools and houses of worship. Benefits include:

- 25% off catering for eligible Community Partners members.

- 20% fundraising giveback opportunities at participating company-owned locations (participation may vary by franchise location).

- Approximately 4% back through Deli Dollars Rewards, with members earning $10 in rewards after accruing 250 points.

- Kid Cash Rewards for free Kids Meals, sponsorships, donations and additional community giveback opportunities throughout the year.

As the 50th anniversary celebration continues, the brand remains focused on delivering quality meals, exceptional value and memorable guest experiences.
