December 03, 2018 // Franchising.com // POWAY, Calif. - Jersey Mike’s Subs, known for its fresh sliced/fresh grilled subs, opened in Poway on November 28. Franchise owners Steve Leonard, Fred Downey, and Drew Appel held a grand opening and free sub fundraiser from Wednesday, November 28 to Sunday, December 2 to support Cancer for College.

The new restaurant, located at 13305 Poway Road, circulated 10,000 coupons throughout the community offering a free regular sub for a minimum $2 contribution to Cancer for College

Cancer for College was formed in 1993 by Craig Pollard as a senior project while at the USC Business School. Craig was a two-time cancer survivor and witnessed firsthand the financial impact cancer can have on a family and the hope a college education can provide to a survivor.

“I have had the privilege of knowing the man behind the cause, the founder of Cancer for College - Craig Pollard,” said Leonard. “Craig, a two-time cancer survivor, is not only an incredible mentor and visionary, but he provides resolute inspiration for so many young people with cancer.” Leonard and his team have partnered with this worthy cause for all five of their previous grand openings.

Leonard, Downey, and Appel are exemplary Jersey Mike’s franchise owners who share the company’s commitment to quality products and exceptional customer service, and who are dedicated to giving back to the local community. Since 2010, Jersey Mike’s locations throughout the country have raised more than $34 million for worthy local charities and have distributed more than 2 million free sub sandwiches to help numerous causes. This year, the company’s 8th Annual Jersey Mike’s Month of Giving in March raised over $6 million for more than 170 charities throughout the country.
