SUBWAY® Celebrates National Sandwich Day with The Good Deed Feed™ - Unlimited Donations to Feeding America®

"One in eight Americans are going hungry, and we're in the business of feeding people," said Suzanne Greco, president and CEO, SUBWAY® restaurants. "Many of our franchisees have been committed to fighting hunger in their communities for years, and we're proud of The Good Deed Feed and the impact it will have on a national level."

SUBWAY® restaurants is striving to make National Sandwich Day the single largest meal donation day in Feeding America's history by donating more than 11 million meals—with no limit on the number of meals donated. Following National Sandwich Day, SUBWAY® restaurants will reveal the final donation.

"Hunger is an issue that affects every community in our country. We are thankful for SUBWAY® restaurants and its customers for their commitment to fighting hunger on National Sandwich Day," said Diana Aviv, Chief Executive Officer of Feeding America. "Donations made through this campaign will go a long way in helping member food banks provide meals to people in need."

The Good Deed Feed™ will be promoted with a dedicated Mic content series, launching today, featuring heartfelt stories from SUBWAY® franchisees, and families served by Feeding America food banks. https://mic.com/gooddeedfeed Mic will make a meal donation each time the content is shared. Use the hashtag #GoodDeedFeed and follow the conversation with SUBWAY® on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

In the restaurants, customers can access a custom National Sandwich Day Snapchat filter that can be unlocked at most of the 27,000+ SUBWAY® locations nationwide on Nov. 3 only.

In Canada, SUBWAY® restaurants are working with Food Banks Canada on a similar donation of meals as part of the National Sandwich Day Buy/One Get One promotion.
