SPINX RAISES $324,960 FOR THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY
GREENVILLE, SC | November 29, 2023 – The Spinx Company, Greenville-based fuel and convenience retail company, has raised $324,960 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 (ACS), and those in need throughout the month of October.
The mission of ACS is to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support, to ensure everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer. ACS provides the support and guidance people impacted by cancer need at every step. From increasing access to screening at the local, state, and federal levels and advocating for more affordable healthcare, to guiding patients and caregivers through a free 24/7 helpline and offering free transportation and lodging. In addition, ACS funds help conduct research so people in every community have the opportunity to prevent, detect, treat and survive cancer.
“As a cancer survivor myself, this campaign is very special to me and the entire Spinx family, and we work tirelessly to raise funds that can support those battling this horrible disease,” said Stewart Spinks, Chairman and Founder of The Spinx Company. “I am so proud of our stores, the local communities and our team for bringing awareness to the American Cancer Society and providing help to all those in need during their most trying time. On behalf of the entire Spinx team, thank you for all your hard work and generous donations!”
