Sheetz Charity Exceeds $1 Million in Fundraising

In another positive development, Sheetz For The Kidz, an employee-driven charity that supports underprivileged children, has achieved an impressive milestone this year. During its July in-store campaign, the charity raised $1,009,466, marking the first time the initiative has exceeded $1 million in a single annual event.

How Donations Work

Every July and December, Sheetz customers can contribute to the charity at checkout, either via donation boxes or by including a gift with purchases. Funds raised support local children with essential items like clothes and toys through their Holiday Program in partnership with The Salvation Army.

Impact of Donations

Last year, the initiative raised over $1.81 million, assisting nearly 12,400 children across seven states where Sheetz operates. This generous support helps brighten the holidays for many families in need.

For the latest developments in local businesses and community initiatives, keep an eye on updates. The Tyrone Skin Bar is just one example of how local entrepreneurs are making a positive impact.
