Join Jersey Mike’s in Supporting Best Buddies

October 17th, 2023

Dear Best Buddies Family,   

I am reaching out to you with an exciting (and delicious) update: Best Buddies recently established a national partnership with Jersey Mike’s Subs! The partnership officially kicks off TODAY with a round-up donation program on the restaurant’s app.  

From October 16th to October 31st, customers placing their orders through the Jersey Mike’s app can round up their payment to the nearest dollar or donate $1, $3, or $5 to Best Buddies when completing their purchase. The donations will help raise awareness and generate support for our mission of inclusion. 

Jersey Mike’s will also air national TV commercials featuring Best Buddies participants and staff members to promote the partnership, so be on the lookout for our superstar Best Buddies participants! Click below to watch the commercial! 

Let’s work together to share the exciting news of this partnership with our family and friends, and please remember to download the Jersey Mike’s app to actively participate in this donation program throughout the second half of October. Together, we can continue to significantly impact the lives of those we serve.

In friendship,

Anthony K. Shriver
