Community Support Drives Successful Partnership Between ALCIVIA Cenex and the Columbus School District
ALCIVIA is pleased to announce that the second round of the support program with the Columbus School District has successfully come to a close on June 30, resulting in a donation of $11,410 to the district.
In the fall of 2020, ALCIVIA launched a partnership with the Columbus School District in which the ALCIVIA Cenex would donate 5% of all sales generated inside the store and 5 cents per gallon of gas purchased when customers shopped using their rewards program card.
“We’re very appreciative of ALCIVIA’s continued support and partnership,” said Columbus School District Superintendent Annette Deuman. “CSD used the proceeds from the program to help fund our new playground equipment for our 4k through first grade children.”
ALCIVIA is grateful for the support from local patrons to make this partnership so successful. ALCIVIA hopes to expand the program to other school districts where they operate Cenex convenience stores. Tim Toraason, who oversees all of ALCIVIA’s Cenex convenience stores, said: “As a locally owned cooperative, ALCIVIA is proud to give back to the communities we serve. We’re very pleased with the success of the Columbus partnership, and look forward to expanding the program in the future.”
