Representatives from Jersey Mike’s paid a visit to Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital (LLUCH) Monday, Nov. 9, and they didn’t come empty handed. Jersey Mike’s executive marketing director of the west coast, Jolene Leonard, along with some of her Jersey Mike’s team members from a few Inland Empire stores presented a check to the hospital for $6,571. “This was a team effort – we don't do anything at Jersey Mike’s alone,” Leonard said. “We’re looking forward to more connections with the hospital. We want to be a part of the community because giving back is what Jersey Mike’s is all about. Jersey Mike’s recently hosted their inaugural “Combos for Kids” fundraiser. Each Monday during the month of October, the 32 Inland Empire locations invited customers to purchase a combo meal, and $1 from each meal was donated to LLUCH. Hospital CEO, Kerry Heinrich, expressed his appreciation to Jersey Mike’s for their support. “Partnerships with the community are unbelievably important,” he said. “They help us to meet the needs of our patients and make a difference in their lives.”
