Support Our Neighbors Facing Hunger
At Kum & Go, we want people to have access to the food and resources they need to thrive. That’s why we’re donating to Feeding America®, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization, to help our neighbors experiencing food insecurity in local communities where we operate. We’re also making it easier for our customers to chip in.
How You Can Help
When you visit any Kum & Go between Oct. 23 and Dec. 4, you’ll have the option to round up your cash or credit transaction to the nearest dollar. That donation will go to Feeding America and people experiencing food insecurity. Ninety percent of donations raised will stay local, with the remaining funds supporting the activities of the Feeding America national organization.
We look forward to serving you and — with your help — supporting our neighbors who are working hard to bring meals home.

What We're Doing
In 2023, Maverik acquired Kum & Go and together, our two brands serve customers in over 840 locations across 20 states and growing.
To kick off the Round Up Your Change campaign, Maverik recently donated $1 million to Feeding America to be distributed across the network of local partner food banks throughout our combined 20-state footprint. This substantial contribution will help provide vital support to people experiencing food insecurity in the regions where our customers and Team Members live and work. Last year, with the help of our customers, Maverik donated more than $573,000 to Feeding America, the equivalent of more than 5.7 million meals*.
We’ve also been hard at work expanding our Food Rescue Donation Program, rescuing our surplus food and redistributing it to local Feeding America partner food banks. Since this program was established in 2021, we have donated more than 3.2 million pounds of surplus food, the equivalent of nearly 2.7 million meals**, to people facing hunger in our communities. We’re currently running the program in over 370 stores in 16 states across our combined Maverik and Kum & Go footprints.
