Cubby’s Convenience Stores’ fundraiser program ‘Raise Some Dough’ supports local schools and youth programming. Since 2018, it has raised and donated over $80,000. As mentioned in the C-Store Decisions article, the “funds donated are completely discretional and have been used to purchase classroom resources, playground equipment, athletic equipment or to support educational programming.”
The new initiative helps the community uplift and provides opportunities for the youth, which ultimately gives consumers a feel-good reason to shop there. On top of all of this, for every large Godfather’s Pizza Express sold, Chubby’s donates $1 to school districts. Raise Some Dough’s efforts have already helped and supported those in the Red Oak Iowa Community Schools District and Blair Nebraska Community Schools, to name a few.
