Local Basketball Coaches Serve Lunch With A Purpose
February is National Cancer Prevention Month and you can help raise money for the cause just by getting a sandwich. For the third year, local Subway restaurants are enlisting college basketball coaches to become “Sandwich Artists” as part of the month-long Coaches vs. Cancer campaign.
Throughout the month of February, you can visit participating Subway locations in 22 counties surrounding Charlotte and make a donation at the checkout to Coaches vs. Cancer. All contributions will support American Cancer Society local patient programs, education, and research.
