CHAPEL HILL – Buy a sub at Jersey Mike’s Wednesday and you’ll help fight cancer.

Jersey Mike’s kicks off its “Month of Giving” by a day of giving in which 100 percent of the proceeds go to The V Foundation for Cancer Research. The V Foundation was formed by the late NC State basketball coach Jimmy Valvano just months before he lost his battle with cancer in 1993.

All Triangle locations of Jersey Mike’s are participating in the event, including the Elliot Road location in Chapel Hill.

Since ’93, The V Foundation has awarded more than $100 million to more than 100 facilities.
