Coffee for a Cause
RaceTrac is combining Childhood Cancer Awareness Month with National Coffee Day to raise funds for Camp Sunshine.
In honor of National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and National Coffee Day on Sept. 29, RaceTrac stores throughout Georgia are using the occasion to benefit the children and families who attend Camp Sunshine.
“Throughout the month of September, RaceTrac guests have been invited to add $1 to their purchases as a donation to the organization,” said Terrica Oglesby, marketing programs manager for RaceTrac. “Beginning this Sunday, Sept. 23, all funds from coffee purchases through Saturday, Sept. 29, will go directly to Camp Sunshine as well.”
Oglesby said this is the third year that RaceTrac has operated the program.
