Point Pleasant Beach's Jersey Mike's 'Day Of Giving' Runs Through Wednesday

Point Pleasant Beach residents are no strangers to Jersey Mikes.

It was here, back in 1956, a man named Mike opened up his first Mike’s Subs business. Later on, a very young Peter Cancro bought the business, changed the name to Jersey Mike’s and began to expand. Today there are franchises in 38 states throughout the country, according to the company’s website.

And today, any customer that walks into any Jersey Mike’s store and buys lunch, dinner or a snack will have 100 percent of the cost of their food donated to local charities.

It’s all part of the company’s fifth annual ”Month of Giving” campaign that culminates with the ”Day of Giving,” according to the website.

The Point Pleasant Beach store is located at 901 Richmond Avenue and is open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. You can order by phone - 732-892-9546 or by fax - 732-892-6796.
