Around 2015, Jimmy began involved in donating to the Sokovia Relief Fund to aid the people of the country Sokovia after Tony Stark's rogue robot Ultron destroyed their capitol. The restaurant made specialty shawarma as a promotion and raised $35,000 to donate. Around 2016, Jimmy's restaurant was visited by Nakia and Princess Shuri of Wakanda when in New York for a Wakandan outreach program organized by King T'Challa.
When Tony Stark opened the first, "Avengers Campus" in Orange, California, Jimmy expanded his business to a food-cart in the campus. This decision was met by excitement and encouragement from Tony Stark.
