Cumberland Farms to Kick Off Fundraiser for Granby PTO

Cumberland Farms is kicking off a month-long fundraiser today, Nov. 30, to benefit Granby students and Parent Teacher Organization (PTO).

Over the next four weeks, Cumberland Farms will donate 20 cents from every Chill Zone beverage, iced tea and coffee (iced or hot) purchased at its newly remodeled store at 19 Hartford Ave. in Granby to benefit the students. Cumberland Farms pledges to raise at least $1,000 for the schools. 

The funds raised will go toward enhancing the students’ cultural arts, enrichment and family activities programs organized by the PTO.

“We challenge our students to become active and positive contributors to our school, and compassionate contributors to the world,” said Amy Milbrandt, president PTO, in a prepared statement. “Our goal extends beyond the walls of our schools and into the community. We greatly appreciate Cumberland Farms generous donation to our dedicated PTO.”

“As a parent and business professional, I understand the importance of students and families working together to build a supportive culture of learning. Cumberland Farms is honored to aid in raising funds for the parents and teachers working hard to improve the lives of future generations,” said Ari Haseotes, president of the Cumberland Farms Retail Division, in the statement.

So far this year, Cumberland Farms has donated more than $100,000 to support local organizations across the Northeast.
