Jersey Mike's hopes to shatter its own record and raise more than $8 million this year, it said in a news release. Jersey Mike's has been taking donations all month for selected charities. "All sales from all locations" will be donated on Wednesday, the company said. Owners will even donate their money to the cause so that every dollar that flows in on Wednesday will go to charity. Restaurant owners pick the charities and identify organizations "that support local neighborhoods and build a stronger community," the company said. Learn more about Cornerstones here.
