Houstonians, mark your calendars and prepare your appetites! This coming Wednesday, March 26th, you have a delicious opportunity to make a significant difference in the lives of our nation’s heroes and their families. All 69 Jersey Mike’s Subs locations across the Houston area will be participating in the company’s nationwide Day of Giving, generously donating 100% of their sales – every single dollar – to the remarkable non-profit organization, Carry The Load.

Forget about just a portion of the profits; on this special day, every sub, every side, every drink purchased at a Houston-area Jersey Mike’s will directly contribute to Carry The Load’s vital mission. This organization provides active ways to honor the sacrifices made by our military personnel, veterans, first responders, and their families.

For those unfamiliar with their impactful work, Carry The Load is deeply embedded in the Houston community. Each Memorial Day and Patriot Day, they host poignant events right here in our city, bringing together the community to recognize the dedication and service of local heroes and to remember those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. In fact, Houston City Beat has proudly covered some of these very events in the past, witnessing firsthand the powerful impact of Carry The Load’s initiatives.

This nationwide Day of Giving marks the 15th annual event for Jersey Mike’s, a testament to their enduring commitment to giving back to the communities they serve. But this year holds a special significance for Houston as all participating locations are rallying behind a local organization that has consistently demonstrated its dedication to our region’s heroes.

Imagine the collective impact of 69 Houston-area Jersey Mike’s locations dedicating an entire day’s worth of sales to Carry The Load. From the classic Italian to the fan-favorite Philly Cheesesteak, every bite taken on March 26th will be a direct investment in programs that provide crucial support and recognition to those who have served and sacrificed so much.

Carry The Load’s work extends beyond their powerful Memorial Day and Patriot Day events. They offer a year-round continuum of care and support through various programs aimed at connecting civilians to the sacrifices of our heroes, providing healing opportunities for grieving families, and promoting a deeper understanding of the true meaning of service. The funds raised on Jersey Mike’s Day of Giving will directly fuel these vital initiatives, ensuring that Carry The Load can continue to make a tangible difference in the lives of military families, veterans, and first responders right here in Houston and across the nation.

So, how can you participate in this incredibly worthy cause? It’s simple – and delicious!
