## Story

On Saturday, November 20, and Sunday, November 21, Jersey Mike's will donate 20 percent of sales to Feeding America.

Jersey Mike's will donate a minimum of $2.5 million.

Last year, through two national fundraisers, Jersey Mike's raised more than $4.6 million for Feeding America, helping to provide 46 million meals* through the organization's nationwide network of 200 local member food banks.

More than 38 million people face hunger in the U.S., according to the United States Department of Agriculture.

"Feeding America is grateful to Jersey Mike's for their commitment to fighting hunger and for helping food banks across the country provide more meals to people living with food insecurity," said Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, CEO of Feeding America. "This fundraiser will help secure much-needed food and groceries for families, seniors, military veterans and children who need them most."

Guests can place orders in-store or for pickup through Jersey Mike's website or app. Delivery is available through the app or third-party delivery partners.

"The Thanksgiving season is always the busiest time of year for food pantries and food banks nationwide, and Feeding America helps where the needs are the greatest," said Peter Cancro, Founder and CEO of Jersey Mike's Franchise Systems, Inc. "We hope you join us at Jersey Mike's this weekend to make a difference in someone's life."
