Dubuque, Iowa— (December 11, 2023) — For years, Kwik Stop and Dairy Queen customers have been a force for change in our community! Since 2002, their spare change has added up to over $2 million for local nonprofits. Each month, Kwik Care features a local non-profit partner. During each partner’s designated month, all money collected from Kwik Care canisters is donated to the organization.
Kwik Care accepted applications through October 23rd from local nonprofits for the Kwik Care program in 2024. “We received 37 non-profit applications to review. Narrowing down a very deserving group to our 12 recipients for the 2024 calendar was no easy task.” Tessa Fahey, Director of Operations said. “This community is home to several outstanding non-profit organizations that are all doing important things. We are excited to partner with 12 of these local non-profits during the year, bringing awareness to their organizations and their mission in our community.”
The list of Kwik Care 2024 partners is as follows: January – Dubuque Community YMCA – Crisis Services Program February – Friends of the Dubuque County Library District March – Two By Two April – Riverview Center May – Multicultural Family Center June – Veterans Freedom Center July – Almost Home August – Avery Foundation September – DuRide October – Hospice of Dubuque November – Centrally Rooted December – Catholic Charities/Magical Kwik Stop Christmas
Kwik Care is only part of Kwik Stop’s community giving. For more than four decades, Kwik Stop has been donating to local non-profits and investing in local sponsorships that make our community stronger.
