Help Canadians in need on September 19
VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 12, 2024 /CNW/ - Slurpee® Name Your Price Day is back on September 19, 2024. It's the day Canadians can do good while enjoying the tasty goodness of Slurpee®. Visit any 7-Eleven across Canada and name the price for a large Slurpee.
Whether it's a little, or a lot, all proceeds will be donated to Food Banks Canada, in support of local food banks. And those proceeds make a real difference to local communities, because every dollar donated provides two meals.
"Food insecurity is increasing across the country at unprecedented rates. Canadians are facing impossible choices, for instance, deciding between paying for food or housing," shared Erin Filey-Wronecki, Chief Development and Partnerships Officer Food Banks Canada. "At such a critical time, we are grateful for the continued support from 7-Eleven. Together, we will work towards our vision of a Canada where no one goes hungry."
"Slurpee Name Your Price Day has a special place in my heart as 7-Eleven is in the centre of so many communities across the country," noted Marc Goodman, VP & General Manager 7-Eleven Canada. "The idea of our company and our customers working as one to help neighbours in need couldn't be more Canadian."
