Jersey Mike's Customers Raise Nearly $44,000 to Support

Valleywise Health Pediatric and Burn Patients

PHOENIX, Ariz. (August 13, 2026) - Thanks to the generosity of Jersey Mike's customers throughout Arizona, nearly $44,000 was raised during the restaurant's July Round Up campaign to support pediatric patients at Valleywise Health and the Diane & Bruce Halle Arizona Burn Center.

Throughout the month of July, customers at participating Jersey Mike's locations had the opportunity to round up their purchases or make donations of $1, $3 or $5 at checkout. Every dollar raised will help Valleywise Health Foundation support life-changing care, specialized equipment, innovative programs and resources for children and burn patients across Arizona.

"Our customers and team members continue to show what can happen when a community comes together around a shared purpose," said Dan Brown, President of the local Jersey Mike's franchise company that developed the campaign. "Every donation, no matter the size, helped create a meaningful impact for pediatric and burn patients, and we're proud to partner with Valleywise Health Foundation." Franchise company owner Duane Layton added, "Pediatric health has always been an area our local Jersey Mike's restaurants rally around, and this was a perfect fit since I also have a family connection to burn care and recovery."

Valleywise Health is Maricopa County's only public teaching health system, providing exceptional care to every patient, every time. Home to the world-renowned Diane & Bruce Halle Arizona Burn Center, Arizona's largest provider of HIV primary care, three behavioral health hospitals and 11 federally qualified community health centers, the health system delivers specialized care while training the next generation of healthcare professionals.

"We're incredibly grateful to Jersey Mike's, the franchise company, and every customer who chose to round up during the campaign," said Lisa Hartsock, CEO of Valleywise Health Foundation. "It's inspiring to see how small acts of generosity come together to make such a meaningful impact. This support helps provide exceptional care, comfort and hope for patients and their families when they need it most."
