January giving campaign aids K-12 schools
across Casey’s communities
Today, Casey’s General Stores (Nasdaq: CASY) is kicking off a
month-long giving campaign, in partnership with LIFEWTR, to support
local schools in communities across its 16-state footprint.
Throughout January, Casey’s guests can round up their purchases
to provide funding for projects and initiatives at K-12 public and
nonprofit, private schools. In addition, $1 will be donated for
every purchase of a LIFEWTR brand drink and a Mega Slice, up to
$25,000 total.
“Teachers continue to demonstrate heroic efforts in the face of
challenging school years, educating our children in schools, online
and even sometimes both at the same time,” said Megan Elfers, Vice
President of Marketing at Casey’s. “We are proud to do our part to
support them, our schools and our communities when they need us
most.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Casey’s to aid schools,
particularly during these school years that saw a multitude of
changes brought on by the pandemic,” said Guillermo Prieto,
Director of Shopper Marketing, PepsiCo Beverage North America,
Central Division. “This is a way for us to give back to our local
communities while also reminding teachers that we have their backs
as they navigate the waters of educating in this environment.”
Last fall, Casey’s announced its Cash for Classrooms grant
program. Ranging from $1,000 to $50,000, the grants can be used for
physical improvements, material needs, teacher support and
community engagement initiatives. Grant recipients will be
announced in March.
