CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind. — On behalf of everyone at Ceres Solutions, thank you to all customers who came out to our local 2019 Fueling Freedom events! Fueling Freedom 2019 took place on Friday, June 21, and it is an exceptional opportunity for Ceres Solutions employees and community residents to demonstrate their patriotism in advance of our Independence Day celebrations.
In total, seven Ceres Solutions fuel stations took part in the annual fund raiser. Those stations were: Hoagie House (US 41) and Melon Patch (US 41) as well as locations in Logansport, Noblesville, Prairie Creek, Rensselaer and Vincennes. At those locations, our employee teams moved 16,550 gallons and were responsible for total donations of almost $10,000 for our local National Guard Family Readiness Groups. As you can see, many uniformed service members and emergency responders choose to show up and celebrate with our teams during this important day.
Across the CountryMark system, other cooperatives joined in to help sell almost 100,000 gallons of fuel and raise close to $60,000 for the cause. CountryMark, the local fuel refiner for Ceres Solutions, coordinates Fueling Freedom activities every year. This is the 11th anniversary of the event. Ceres Solutions was honored to have had the most number of sites participating within the CountryMark network. It was a great day of service, made possible by the local customers and communities who came out in support.
Family Readiness Groups are critical to building morale among our National Guard Troops. Our dollars will be used in a variety of ways to support soldiers and the families that are so important to our brave service men and women. We are making a difference in the lives of local soldiers and within the communities we serve. Thank you again for giving 100% to our 2019 Fueling Freedom efforts! Want to see more photographs?
