A GIVE BACK PROGRAM WITH REWARDS

Omaha,  NE, January 19, 2022 — Since its inception in 2018, Cubby’s Convenience Stores has donated over $80,000 to local schools and youth programming. Cubby’s donates $1 to school districts for every large Godfather’s Pizza Express it sells.

Raise Some Dough was launched to engage the communities served by Cubby’s. Funds donated are completely discretional and have been used to purchase classroom resources, playground equipment, athletic equipment, or to support educational programming.

“We want to especially thank Cubby’s for the generosity, we have used the donations to purchase technology to support students who were quarantined due to COVID-19,” said Randall Gibson, superintendent of Blair Nebraska Community Schools. “The donations go a long way to support our over 2,100 students every day. Thank you so much for your ongoing support for Blair Community Schools! It is greatly appreciated”.

“Your contributions have been very helpful and allowed us to purchase additional equipment for our athletic department,” Mark Erickson, activities director and head basketball coach, Red Oak Iowa Community Schools District. “We appreciate the donations you continue to make, it makes a big difference for our student athletes”. 

“We are proud of Raise Some Dough, it is an on-going way for us to support the communities we serve,” said De Lone Wilson, president of Cubby’s. “We are grateful to our customers for helping us support local schools and youth programming. The program helps the community and might give a customer another reason to shop Cubby’s rather than the competition, which can help sales. Any increase in sales is welcomed but our objective is to give back to the communities that we serve. We’re always interested in anything we can do to contribute to education. 

Cubby’s runs social media campaigns to promote Raise Some Dough as well as traditional marketing including local radio and in-store signage. Cubby’s feels a good community give back effort needs to be supported and the message needs to be advertised, giving the customer another reason to visit the stores.
