In March, Jersey Mike’s Subs will be celebrating their 11th annual Month of Giving in the Brevard County area. During the month, customers can make a donation to The Children’s Hunger Project at the Jersey Mike’s location in Cocoa Beach along with all Brevard County locations. Jersey Mike’s is locally owned and operated, and has committed to giving back as part of their core mission. This will culminate with the Jersey Mike’s “Day of Giving” on Wednesday, March 31st , when our local Jersey Mike’s owners will give 100% of the day’s sales - not just profit - to The Children’s Hunger Project.
The Children’s Hunger Project provides weekend meals and fights childhood hunger and malnutrition during the school year. Teachers and school administrators, those on the front line of caring for our children while they are away from their parents during the week, know firsthand of the weekend hunger problem. In Brevard County, the number of children in the free and reduced-price meal program exceeds 50%. Some elementary schools have 80% or more of their kids on the free and reduced-price meal program with many of them at risk of childhood hunger and malnutrition.
The money raised during the month of March will go directly to the purchase and distribution of food for our local elementary school students right here in Brevard.
Jersey Mike’s Subs Cocoa Beach was opened in early 2019 and has been making authentic New Jersey style submarine sandwiches since the original store opened in 1956 on the Jersey Shore. Fresh-baked bread, sandwiches grilled and sliced to order, with an authentic family deli feel. Throughout March, customers can make donations through the Jersey Mike’s mobile app or on site.
