## Story

More than 20,000 guests in Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin rounded up their in-store check to the nearest dollar or added a donation of $0.25, $0.50 or more to their cart when purchasing their meal on the Cousins Subs website or through the Cousins Subs mobile app.

"Supporting our communities, especially during times of uncertainty, is at the heart of who we are as a company,” said Justin McCoy, Vice President of Marketing at Cousins Subs and Vice President of the Make It Better Foundation. "We're so appreciative of the thousands of guests who made a donation to our Make It Better Foundation. Their generosity will enable us to support the missions of more nonprofit organizations that work diligently to make our communities a better place to live and learn.”
