On the “Day of Giving” on Wednesday, March 30, the Jersey Mike’s national chain – including its three locations on Maui – will donate 100% of its sales to support the 2022 Special Olympics USA Games and its participating athletes.

During this daylong fundraiser, “every single dollar in sales, not just the profit,” will be donated to the Special Olympics USA Games that run June 5-12 in Orlando, FL, according to a company news release.

It is the first time the company is donating all proceeds on the Day of Giving to a single cause.

During March, customers have been making donations at more than 2,000 Jersey Mike’s locations throughout the nation to support the Special Olympics USA Games.

During the Day of Giving, Jersey Mike’s hopes to surpass last year’s record-breaking $15 million fundraising total and raise enough money to help every qualifying athlete across the country attend the 2022 Special Olympics USA Games.

Every four years, more than 5,500 athletes and coaches from all 50 states unite to compete in one of the most beloved and inspiring sporting events in the country.

Athletes compete in 19 sports, including gymnastics, swimming, tennis, basketball and flag football.

Since 2011, Jersey Mike’s Month of Giving has raised more than $47 million for local charities, the company said.
