May 12, 2015 // Franchising.com // Pomona, CA - Jersey Mike’s Subs, known for its fresh sliced/fresh grilled subs, opened in Pomona on May 6. Franchise owner Alvaro Garcia, held a grand opening and free sub fundraiser from Wednesday, May 6 to Sunday, May 10 to support Diamond Ranch High School, Fremont Academy, Garey High School, Simons Middle School, Diamond Point Elementary, Ranch Hills Elementary School, Decker Elementary School, Philadelphia Elementary School, Vejar Elementary School, Madison Elementary School, Alcott Elementary School, Golden Springs Elementary, Pantera Elementary School, Armstrong Elementary School, Lorbeer Middle School, Roosevelt Elementary School, Washington Elementary School, Kellogg Polytechnic School, and Washington Elementary School.

The new restaurant, located at 2071 Rancho Valley Drive, circulated thousands of flyers throughout the community, each containing various offers. For each offer redeemed, Jersey Mike’s will make a $3 donation to the schools.

"At Jersey Mike’s we believe in becoming a part of the community and pouring into our surrounding neighborhoods,” said Garcia. “We know that our fundraising efforts will affect our city, schools, and children for the next 5, 10, 15, or 20 years. It’s our philosophy that by investing in the future of our students we will not only gain lifelong customers, but more importantly that we will positively impact our youth and their education. We honestly feel that we are changing the world one sub at a time.”
