Buy A Jersey Mike's Sandwich, Save A Life: Here's How

DALLAS, TX — Who knew giving to charity was as easy as eating a sandwich?

That's Jersey Mike's big goal Wednesday as the sandwich giant wraps up its "Month of Giving" with a major giveback day.

On Wednesday, the New Jersey-based sub shop chain will donate every dime spent in its stores to a local charity. And by "every dime," we mean every dollar spent at a Jersey Mike's store will go directly to a local charity — not just profit dollars.

In Dallas, the recipient will be "Wipe Out Kids Cancer." But, as the charity campaign is nationwide, stores in each U.S. metro have chosen unique, local charities to receive donations. If you live outside of North Texas, click here to see which charity will receive your dollars.

Nationwide, 170 charities have benefited from proceeds donated through Jersey Mike's sales, as well as donations made by customers during this annual event.

Since 2010, Jersey Mike's has raised more than $28 million for local charities and has distributed more than 2 million free sub sandwiches to help numerous causes.

You can visit any of Jersey Mike's 41 Dallas-area stores on Wednesday to make a donation just by eating.
