Very simply: Chevron will donate $1 with every fill-up, up to $300,000, from October 1 through October 31, 2017, to help fund materials and supplies for local public schools through donorschoose.org.
Adam Alvidrez, with Chevron, was our speaker. Adam, a member of our North Rotary Club, presented this beautiful initiative to the attendees. Fuel Your School aims to honor and motivate teachers by funding their classroom projects. This initiative was spawned in 2010 through a partnership between Chevron and donorchoose.org, a non-profit organization whose mission is to match teachers classroom endeavors with donors so that each student in the nation has tools available to succeed. Not only that but, Chevron and Donorchoose.org provide students with life essentials like clothing and food to help them stay focused and comfortable in school while learning.
Thanks Adam for the interesting and life giving topic. I know where I’ll fill up this week, do you?
