Dubuque, Iowa— (September 18, 2023) —The largest, locally owned chain of convenience stores, Kwik Stop announced an opportunity for philanthropic partnership during 2024 today. 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 is accepting applications from local nonprofits for the Kwik Care program in 2024. “We have witnessed another great year for the Kwik Care program and our partners, thanks to the generosity of the greater Dubuque community.” Tessa Fahey, Director of Operations said. “Together we can make a difference for local non-profits.”
Local nonprofits are encouraged to complete a Kwik Care partnership application form at gokwikstop.com and submit it on or before October 23, 2023. Selected partners will be featured in Kwik Stop and Dairy Queen stores. “We will be reviewing and selecting up to 12 local Greater Dubuque organizations to partner with us throughout 2024” Fahey said. “It is always fun learning more about the work of so many great non-profits during the selection process and we look forward to it every year.”
Kwik Care is only part of Kwik Stop’s community giving. For four decades, Kwik Stop has been donating to local non-profits and investing in local sponsorships that make our community stronger. Local non-profits are encouraged to submit donation and sponsorship requests at gokwikstop.com.
