Jersey Mike’s Gives Back to PEF

Jersey Mike’s Gives Back to PEF

Jersey Mike’s culture of giving is as much as part of their heritage as oil and vinegar. And not only do they make a good sub, but they also make a difference by giving back to the community. Jersey Mike’s has opened their first Palos Verdes location at the Peninsula Center. From Dec 1 thru Dec 12, Jersey Mike’s will give back to Peninsula Education Foundation to support our PVPUSD students and schools. Just use one of the coupons below!
