GREENVILLE, SC – March 11, 2022 – The Spinx Company, Greenville-based fuel and convenience retail company with more than 80 locations and 50 car washes statewide, is thrilled to announce they have raised $285,000 for the American Cancer Society during a month long, state-wide campaign to provide support for cancer patients and their families. This annual company-wide initiative brings awareness to the American Cancer Society, and those in need throughout the month of October. The 2021 theme was “Drive Out Cancer.”
