Quiznos event benefits The Soldiers Project/Sacramento

Fourteen Sacramento area Quiznos say “thank you” to local customers by hosting a Customer Appreciation Day on Thursday, August 15, from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Participating Quiznos will offer any small sub for just $1.00 with the purchase of a drink and customers will have the option to upgrade to a regular sub for $2.99. A portion of every sandwich sale from the day will benefit The Soldiers Project/Sacramento, a non-profit organization that brings free, confidential mental health services to active-duty military and veterans of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan and their loved ones.
“This is definitely a win-win for both Quiznos and The Soldiers Project,” said Becca Bettis, program director forThe Soldiers Project in Sacramento and the Greater Placer area. “This customer appreciation day will allow Quiznos to thank its patrons and give us the opportunity to educate the community about what we do for military members and their families.”
Every dollar raised for The Soldiers Project on Aug. 15 will stay within the Sacramento and Greater Placer community and will be used to provide psychological treatment to military service members and their loved ones who have served or who expect to serve in conflict. The Soldiers Project volunteers will be on hand at each restaurant to distribute information, answer questions and accept additional donations.
Named by the White House in 2012 as one of the nation’s top 20 military service organizations, The Soldiers Project of Sacramento and Greater Placer County is comprised of about 45 volunteer therapists who last year gave nearly 1,000 hours of free treatment to soldiers and their families. Its unlimited services go beyond those provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs medical system.
