2 Fairfax Eateries Donating All Sales For A Day To Charity

FAIRFAX CITY, VA — Two Jersey Mike's Subs store in the Fairfax City are donating 100 percent of sales in support of area charities on Wednesday.

The Kamp Washington Jersey Mike's is joining three other Northern Virginia sub shops in supporting Powerful Beyond Measure, a volunteer-run non-profit that implements efforts toward youth and community development.

The Fair Lakes Jersey Mike's and 12 other D.C.-area restaurants are donating their sales on Wednesday to Special Olympics Virginia, which provides year-round support and training in athletic competition for children and adults with intellectual disabilities.

The effort is part of the sandwich franchise chain's Month of Giving, which has raised $32 million for local charities since 2011. Jersey Mike's hopes to shatter its own record and raise more than $8 million this year, it said in a news release.

Jersey Mike’s has been taking donations all month for selected charities. “All sales from all locations” will be donated on Wednesday, the company said. Owners will even donate their money to the cause so that every dollar that flows in on Wednesday will go to charity.

Restaurant owners pick the charities and identify organizations “that support local neighborhoods and build a stronger community,” the company said.

Here's a list of participating locations near Fairfax City:

• Kamp Washington: 11199 Lee Highway, Unit C
• Fair Lakes: 12703 Shoppes Lane

In 2019, we broke $7 million raised for more than 200 different charities. It takes the support of all of our fans to make a difference in our local communities. We hope you’ll join us on Wed, March 31st, as we hope to set a new record of over $8 million raised! #JerseyMikesGives pic.twitter.com/DslhcbVtG4
