Wipe Out Kids' Cancer is joining forces with Jersey Mike's Subs restaurants throughout the DFW area for the 3rd annual "Month of Giving" fundraising campaign March 1-28 to raise money and awareness for pediatric cancer research. All 18 DFW Jersey Mike's restaurants will make a 25 cent donation to WOKC for each regular sub sold and a 50 cent donation for each giant sub sold - you do not have to even mention WOKC!

Wednesday, March 28, will be Make a Difference Day at all DFW Jersey Mike's and customers will receive a free regular sub in exchange for a minimum $2 donation to Wipe Out Kids' Cancer ... although the hope is that customers will give more.  

Please support a great cause by eating at Jersey Mike's from March 1-28! Help spread the word to all your friends, family and business contacts through email, Facebook and Twitter. Make a difference for children with cancer ... one sub at a time. For more information, visit www.wokc.org.
