For Every Large Beverage Purchased on 'Feeding America® Fridays,' Convenience Retailer will Help Provide One Meal*, Customers Can Round up Change to Donate and Enter for Chances to Win Prizes

IRVING, Texas (Feb. 24, 2021) – After a year that impacted the world like no other, 7‑Eleven, Inc. is hungry to help and is asking customers to join in. Through the end of April, the iconic convenience retailer is kicking off a multi-faceted campaign to help provide meals to families facing hunger through its relationship with Feeding America, the largest domestic hunger-relief organization in the country.

So how can customers drink up, eat up and round up to help others? The retailer is implementing major programs to reach its goal of helping to provide 20 million meals – Feeding America Fridays drink promotion and Round up for Rewards, where customers can donate change and earn chances to win exclusive, once in a lifetime prizes**.

"One year ago, we made an unwavering commitment as an essential business to provide food and critical supplies to customers during an unprecedented pandemic. Unfortunately, nearly one year later, hunger continues to rise in America," said 7‑Eleven Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Marissa Jarratt. "As our stores continue to support communities in which they operate, we are inviting customers to help us give back on an even greater scale. By simply buying a large drink on Feeding America Fridays or rounding up the nearest dollar for a chance to win awesome prizes, customers can help us reach our goal of putting at least 20 million meals on the tables of families in need. That's 20 million times we can pay it forward together."
