Roseland fundraiser set for National Night Out to benefit Officer Mark Miller
Summary
A community fundraiser at Jersey Mike's on Tuesday, Aug. 5 — National Night Out — will direct proceeds to Officer Mark Miller, who was seriously injured in a June 20 traffic crash and is recovering in rehab; the restaurant will donate 50% of app orders using the announced promo code and a $3 donation yields a free regular sub.
A presenter at a community meeting announced that Roseland police Officer Mark Miller was seriously injured in a traffic crash on June 20 and is now recovering in a rehabilitation facility. The presenter said Miller "almost lost his life" and that his recovery has outpaced doctors' initial expectations.
The presenter urged residents to support Miller and the police department by participating in a Jersey Mike's fundraiser scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 5, which coincides with National Night Out. "If you come to Jersey Mike's with a card that's available throughout the borough and spend $3, you will get a free regular sub," the presenter said. The presenter added that the store manager will explain other ways to give for those who cannot attend in person.
Organizers gave logistical details for the fundraiser: it runs from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.; customers who use the Jersey Mike's app and enter the spoken promo code (rendered in the meeting as "JD gift") will have 50% of their order donated to Officer Mark Miller and his family; and the minimum donation tied to the free regular sub is $3. The presenter encouraged online orders to reduce waiting time.
The announcement closed with a reiteration of the fundraiser details and thanks to a community member named Matt who was acknowledged during the remarks. No further names, amounts beyond the minimum donation, or organizational contact details were provided during the announcement.
The presenter asked the community to "join me in supporting a wonderful cause," and thanked attendees for their support of Officer Miller as he continues rehabilitation.
