Decatur Eatery Donating All Sales For A Day To Charity

DECATUR, GA — The Decatur Jersey Mike's Subs stores are among 12 Bay Area locations donating 100 percent of sales to Bert's Big Adventure on Wednesday.

Established in 2002, Bert's Big Adventure is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides an all-expenses-paid, five-day journey to Walt Disney World for children with chronic and terminal illnesses and their families.

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 Decatur:

• 1245 Caroline St. NE, Atlanta
• 2740 Briarcliff Road, Atlanta

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
