Our communities have supported us for more than 95 years and we're proud to give back.

Call to Action

Community Involvement

At Maverik, we're committed to making a difference in the communities where we live and work - from the Midwest to the West Coast.

As a subsidiary of FJ Management (FJM), Maverik helps fund the mission of FJM's Call Foundation and Call to Action Foundation. Both Foundations are dedicated to supporting Maverik's primary pillars for giving - increasing access to food, education, and affordable housing - to help underserved communities across Maverik's operating region encompassing 20 states and growing. Since 2007, the Foundations have invested more than $55 million to strengthen the lives of working families throughout Maverik's footprint. FJM's subsidiary companies include Maverik, Big West Oil, Kum & Go and Crystal Inn.

All charitable giving is managed by the Call to Action Foundation. To learn more, visit: https://calltoactionfdn.org/.

Supporting Our Neighbors

Helping Local Neighbors through Food Donations

More than 16 million meals* and counting!

Everyone needs nutritious food to thrive. While people are working hard to provide for themselves and their families, approximately 44 million people—that's one in seven people in the U.S.— experienced food insecurity in 2022.

That's why Maverik has teamed up with Feeding America®, the nation's largest domestic hunger-relief organization, to rescue surplus food in our stores and contribute it to local food banks. Together with newly acquired Kum & Go, our combined food waste reduction program is active in nearly 450 stores across 13 states serving 24 local food banks and growing – and has thus far raised over 1.4M pounds of surplus food creating over 1.2M meals.

*MealClaim - $1 helps to provide at least ten meals secured by Feeding America® on behalf of local member food banks.

Education

$6.6 million in scholarships to students in need.

Maverik is focused on fueling youth educational adventures. In addition to supporting a variety of educational charities throughout Maverik's operating region through the Call to Action Foundation, we've invested more than $6.6 million in scholarships to students across Utah. Many of our scholarship recipients are first-generation students. We support them with professional mentorship, academic counseling, and connections to social support services, so they are well-equipped to succeed in educational and professional environments.

Affordable Housing

Invested $38 million in affordable housing for working families.

Affordable housing is one of the most urgent and serious needs facing our neighbors. Research shows that increasing access to affordable housing is the most cost-effective strategy for reducing childhood poverty and increasing economic mobility in the United States. Since 2022, we have invested more than $38 million to secure and preserve safe, affordable housing for families in regions where our Team Members live and work, ensuring more families enjoy a better quality of life.

Together with our generous customers, we helped raise funds for select non-profits making strong impacts in our local communities. Since 2021 we've raised over $3.5M to support timely and ongoing causes most important to our Team Members and customers!
