Cousins Subs has announced the success of its 2024 Catering for a Cure campaign, which raised $50,000 to support pediatric cancer research and care through the Starr Children’s Fund. Since the initiative began, Cousins Subs and its Make It Better Foundation have donated a total of $450,000 to further the foundation's mission.

"Catering for a Cure allows us to make a meaningful impact alongside our guests, who are passionate about supporting pediatric cancer research," said Justin McCoy, vice president of marketing at Cousins Subs. "We’re honored to stand with the Vince Lombardi Cancer Foundation and Starr Children’s Fund in their mission to bring hope and healing to young patients and their families."

During September, Cousins Subs contributed $15 from each 20-piece Party Box sold to the Starr Children’s Fund, achieving the campaign's $50,000 goal. These contributions will aid critical research and immunotherapy treatment at the Bart & Cherry Starr Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Fellowship within the Cancer and Blood Disorders Center at Children’s of Alabama. This specialized fellowship program trains physicians in advanced pediatric cancer care.
