This March, Jersey Mike’s locations across the Central Valley have teamed up with the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism for the 15th annual Month of Giving campaign.

Customers at participating locations can donate by rounding up their purchase or contributing $1, $3 or $5. All of the proceeds will support individuals with autism. 

The Flutie Foundation was founded by former NFL quarterback Doug Flutie and his wife, Laurie, in 1998 after their son, Dougie, was diagnosed with autism at the age of three. For more than 25 years, the Flutie Foundation has provided over $20 million in funding to schools and organizations that offer clinical therapies, respite care, recreational programs, social skills training, job support and other essential services for individuals with autism.

The campaign will conclude on March 26 with Jersey Mike’s Day of Giving, when 100% of the sales from the locations will be donated to the foundation. Across the last five years, the partnership has raised over $2.1 million.

Participating Central Valley store locations include:

• 5776 N. Blackstone Ave., Fresno
•  
• 8480 N. Friant Rd., Fresno
