The funds raised will go to families suffering from catastrophic illnesses and will be used to supplement their living expenses, medical bills, insurance premiums and other incidentals,” said Julie Talbert, Executive Director the Talbert Family Foundation. “People don’t often realize that along with all the emotional and physical stress that comes with cancer, the financial stress can be just as devastating. Our foundation was created to support this need and we’re excited to find a partner like Jersey Mike’s with similar values.” For more information about Jersey Mike’s Subs Month of Giving please visit:
