=== Jared Foundation ===
In 2004, Fogle established the Jared Foundation, a [[nonprofit organization]] focused on raising awareness about [[childhood obesity]] through educational programs and tools provided to parents, schools, and community organizations.<ref>{{cite news| first=Justin Wm. |last= Moyer| title=Jared Fogle: Another VIP claiming to help children but who allegedly harmed them| url= https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/08/20/jared-fogle-another-vip-claiming-to-help-children-who-allegedly-harmed-them/| newspaper=[[The Washington Post]]| location= Washington, DC|date=August 20, 2015|access-date=August 22, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150822031836/http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/08/20/jared-fogle-another-vip-claiming-to-help-children-who-allegedly-harmed-them/|archive-date=August 22, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref>

On April 29, 2015, Russell Taylor, director of the Jared Foundation, was arrested at his Indianapolis home on charges of child exploitation, possession of child pornography, and [[Voyeurism#Criminology|voyeurism]]. According to court records, Taylor and his then-wife, Angela Baldwin, sexually molested young girls and installed cameras in their house to film the victims without their knowledge. Fogle severed all ties with Taylor immediately following the arrest.<ref>{{cite news| first1= Greg| last1= Margason|first2=Kendall|last2=Downing|title=Executive director of Jared Foundation arrested on child pornography, exploitation charges| url= http://fox59.com/2015/04/29/executive-director-of-jared-foundation-arrested-on-child-pornography-charges/| work=[[WXIN]].com |location=Indianapolis, Indiana |date= April 29, 2015|access-date=July 7, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150707210122/http://fox59.com/2015/04/29/executive-director-of-jared-foundation-arrested-on-child-pornography-charges/|archive-date=July 7, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=TaylorPlea2020/> Taylor attempted suicide on May 6, 2015, at the [[Marion County, Indiana|Marion County]] Jail and was placed on life support.<ref name=usaraid>{{cite news| first1= Madeline |last1= Buckley |first2= Justin| last2=Mack|title=Police raid home of Subway pitchman Jared Fogle| url= https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/07/07/police-investigation-jared-fogle-subway-pitchman/29808241/ |newspaper=[[USA Today]]|publisher=[[Gannett Company]]|location=Mclean, Virginia| date=July 7, 2015|access-date=July 7, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150707215722/http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/07/07/police-investigation-jared-fogle-subway-pitchman/29808241/|archive-date=July 7, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="fox1">{{cite news| first= Kyee| last=Wierks|title=Former Jared Foundation Director Russell Taylor attempted to commit suicide at the Marion County Jail| url= http://fox59.com/2015/05/06/former-jared-foundation-director-russell-taylor-attempts-suicide-in-marion-county-jail/| work= WXIN.com| location=Indianapolis |date=May 6, 2015| access-date=July 7, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150707233902/http://fox59.com/2015/05/06/former-jared-foundation-director-russell-taylor-attempts-suicide-in-marion-county-jail/|archive-date=July 7, 2015| url-status=live}}</ref> Taylor pleaded guilty to the charges on September 1, 2015, and on December 10, 2015, was sentenced to 27&nbsp;years in federal prison.<ref name=PeopleRussellTaylor/> The sentence was thrown out in March 2020 when it emerged that Taylor's lawyer had failed to challenge three charges that were not supported by the evidence.

In August 2015, a ''[[USA Today]]'' article<ref name="USA Today Duplicity">{{cite news| first1= Thomas| last1=Frank|first2=Marisa|last2=Kwiatkowski|first3=Tony|last3=Cook|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/08/22/jared-subway-charges-children/32155115/| title=From obesity to duplicity: Jared's fall to Earth| newspaper=[[USA Today]] |publisher= [[Gannett Company]] |location=Mclean, Virginia|date=August 23, 2015|access-date=August 25, 2015|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150824230259/http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/08/22/jared-subway-charges-children/32155115/|archive-date=August 24, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref> reported that the Jared Foundation had not issued any grants, nor had it given funds for its stated purpose. The article further noted that, on average, the foundation spent $73,000 a year, with the majority of that figure paying the salary of the foundation's executive director. More than one-quarter of the funds were unaccounted for per the foundation's tax records. Daniel Borochoff, president of the non-profit charity watchdog group [[CharityWatch]], was quoted in the ''USA Today'' article as saying, "If Jared was really interested in helping children through his foundation, he could have gotten more money. As with a lot of celebrities, the charity appears to be more about image-enhancement than charitable deeds."<ref name= "USA Today Duplicity" />

The [[Secretary of State of Indiana]] dissolved the organization in February 2012 because it did not pay the required $5 annual reporting fees during the two previous years, despite being requested to do so on multiple occasions.<ref name="fox1" /><ref>{{cite web| first= Rick| last= Callahan| title=Future of Subway pitchman's foundation unclear after raid| url= http://www.salon.com/2015/07/09/future_of_subway_pitchmans_foundation_unclear_after_raid/|website=[[Salon.com]]| publisher=[[Salon Media Group]]| location=San Francisco, California |date= July 8, 2015|access-date=May 16, 2016| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20160604023642/http://www.salon.com/2015/07/09/future_of_subway_pitchmans_foundation_unclear_after_raid/|archive-date=June 4, 2016|url-status=live}}</ref>
