Cousins Subs is continuing its initiative to support Indianapolis schools through its "Weekend Donation" campaign, now extended to the Emerson location. The campaign will run from November 1 to November 24, involving four local schools aiming to raise funds for their parent-teacher organizations (PTOs). The school with the highest sales during their designated weekend will receive a matching donation from the Cousins Subs Make It Better Foundation.

“We’re proud to expand this initiative to our Emerson location and continue making a positive impact on local schools,” stated Justin McCoy, vice president of marketing at Cousins Subs. “It’s inspiring to see our community come together, and we hope this effort brings students, families and neighbors closer while supporting important school programs.”

The schedule for the Weekend Donation at the Emerson location includes:

- November 1 - November 3: Northeast Elementary School PTO

- November 8 - November 10: Perry Meridian Middle School PTO

- November 15 - November 17: Perry Meridian High School PTO

- November 22 - November 24: ISOM Elementary School PTO

During each school's weekend, 15% of sales from Friday through Sunday will go directly to the respective PTO. The Cousins Subs Make It Better Foundation will match donations based on performance, offering a full match for the top-performing school and additional matches for second, third, and fourth places.

In addition to aiding local schools, Cousins Subs will conduct a “Free Subs for a Year” drawing at the Emerson location. Visitors can enter this drawing during any weekend of the campaign.

This initiative underscores Cousins Subs’ commitment to supporting local causes in Indianapolis through its Make It Better Foundation. The foundation has donated over $1.2 million towards health and wellness, hunger relief, and youth education initiatives across its markets.

“We look forward to welcoming families, students and community members to our Emerson location,” McCoy added. “Together, we can make a meaningful impact while enjoying a meal that brings people together.”
