iHeartMedia Top 40 WIOQ (Q102)/Philadelphia joins PrimoHoagies for its 12th Annual PrimoCares Holiday Gift Drive. This year, Q102’s Buster will join in the fun, helping load gifts and share the excitement as teams prepare to deliver holiday joy to local children and families. The Gift Drive takes place Friday, December 5th from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. at PrimoHoagies Franchising, Inc. headquarters (610 Ryan Ave V4, Westville, NJ 08093). During that time, volunteers and staff will load up hundreds of carefully selected gifts donated through PrimoHoagies locations across the region. After 10 a.m., teams will hit the road to personally deliver these gifts to local schools and community organizations.
Each year, PrimoHoagies franchise locations “adopt” one or more local children for the holidays through trusted community partners. Customers can contribute by rounding up their orders to the nearest dollar in-store, online, or on PrimoHoagies with 100% of proceeds going directly toward fulfilling each child’s wish list. After all donations are collected, franchisees shop for gifts and deliver them to the corporate office by December 5th for distribution. The giving doesn’t stop there—on December 19th, PrimoHoagies employees will also volunteer at a local elementary school, serving lunch and celebrating with students as part of the company’s ongoing community outreach.
“I always love the holiday season — it’s a time for giving, sharing, and spreading joy,” said Nicholas Papanier Jr., Owner, President and CEO of PrimoHoagies. “Through PrimoCares, we’re proud to help make the holidays a little brighter and more cheerful for kids in need.”
“It’s incredible to see how much love and generosity goes into this event,” said Q102 Philly air personality Buster. “Being part of the PrimoCares Gift Drive reminds me what the holidays are all about—community, kindness, and showing up for kids who deserve to feel special this time of year.”
Since its launch 12 years ago, PrimoCares has connected thousands of customers and franchisees with meaningful opportunities to give back during the holidays, making a lasting impact in the communities PrimoHoagies proudly serves.
