Thank you for helping us Fuel Good!

On Tuesday, September 17, 2024, 10 ¢ per litre of fuel will be shared between three local Fuel Good Day recipients. Our 2024 recipients are the Clearwater Memorial Playground Project, Portage Friendship Centre's "Tools for School" program and the Visions of Independence independent living programs.

Clearwater Memorial Playground Project

The Carman and Community Chamber of Commerce together with the Town of Carman, Carman Wellness Connections, Boyne River Keepers and Communities in Bloom are collaborating and working together on the Clearwater Memorial Playground Project. This initiative aims to create a wheelchair-accessible playground that will serve as a safe haven for all children in our Carman community. The playground will include a memorial sculpture in honour of Amanda Clearwater and her children and niece. The funds from Fuel Good Day will help to further the progress of this heartening project.

Portage Friendship Centre & the Local United Way

The Portage Friendship Centre is a non profit organization committed to becoming self-sufficient and to continuing cultural, spiritual and educational programming thereby promoting the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well being of Urban Aboriginal people. The proceeds from Fuel Good Day will help fund the “Tools for School Program”. The Portage Friendship Centre has partnered with the United Way and met with the Portage School Division to identify gaps and needs within the schools to make sure the children have the right “tools for school” to succeed each year.

Visions of Independence

Visions of Independence provides residential, respite, day and supported independent living programs in Austin, Carman, Portage la Prairie, St. Claude and Winnipeg, MB to people with intellectual disabilities. Proceeds from Fuel Good Day will be directed towards programming efforts to enhance the opportunity for the people that are supported, and their staff, to be able to get out into the community.

Fueling good in your community since 2017!

Fuel Good Day on September 19, 2023 was a success thanks to Co-op members and customers across Western Canada. Together, we raised $645K! Every year on Fuel Good Day, Co-op donates a minimum of five cents per litre of fuel purchased at participating gas bars to local charities and non-profits.

There were 168 organizations selected as recipients for Fuel Good Day in 2023. Since 2017, Fuel Good Day has raised more than $4.2 million supporting more than 870 local organizations.

By supporting this worthwhile campaign, you continue to fuel 'good' in your local community!

In previous years, funds raised on Fuel Good Day have supported community organizations that provide comfort for children and their families during very difficult times, foundations that work to upgrade medical equipment to improve their patients’ lives and groups that make it easier for kids to play the sports they love, among many others.
