Helping the community, one sub at a time!

Firehouse Subs in Orland Park is probably best known for its Public Safety Foundation (and the great food, of course!). But while the franchise supports local fire departments, did you know that Firehouse Subs also contributes to various non-fire-related charities and organizations?

For example, Firehouse Subs in Orland Park is contributing to Elim Christian Services’ “Eat Out For Elim” night. Elim offers education, vocational and therapeutic opportunities to people with disabilities so they can reach their highest potential. In fact, a member of our staff is a part of the Elim family. Not only do donations provide funding to Elim, but it also helps create employment opportunities for Elim adults.

On Wednesday, August 21 from 4-8 p.m., 15 percent of dine-out proceeds of Firehouse Subs purchases will be donated to Elim Christian Services. But don’t forget-- you MUST DOWNLOAD and use the flyer to ensure the donation to Elim. CherryBerry, located next door to Firehouse Subs in Orland Park, is also participating. 15 percent of CherryBerry proceeds from Wednesday, August 21 from 4-10 p.m. will go to the organization.

Firehouse Subs will also donate 15 percent of catering proceeds to Elim between Friday, August 16 and Sunday, August 25. You can download a form or pick one up at our store at the counter. Please remember that catering orders must be placed at least 24 hours in advance.

Has someone you know been affected by Elim Christian Services? Will you support Elim Christian Services by stopping by Firehouse Subs in Orland Park or Cherry Berry on Wednesday, August 21? Let us know, and we thank you for your generosity!
