The Markets of Tiger Fuel Company have joined forces with The NACS Foundation and convenience stores across the country to thank first responders on the second annual 24/7 Day. On Friday, July 24th, The Markets will honor first responders, health-care providers, military personnel and disaster relief volunteers who work around the clock to support our communities.
All nine convenience store locations will recognize paramedics, EMTs, police officers, firefighters and medical professionals who present a valid I.D. with a complimentary fountain drink or hot coffee (any size) as a way of saying “thank you”. The gourmet-to-go deli stores will express appreciation to police officers and firefighters on July 24th with a special meal delivered to a number of police and fire stations located in Charlottesville City, Albemarle County, Greene County and Locust Grove.
“The first responders and medical personnel are truly inspiring to us and continue to fight through this pandemic, working non-stop to keep our communities safe,” said Gordon Sutton, President of Tiger Fuel Company. “We’d like to express our appreciation to all of them on 24/7 Day and hope that this small gesture will help fuel these first responders as they work through this challenging time. It is our privilege to take some time out of our day to thank these local heroes.”
The Markets will also host a number of giveaways on their Facebook page throughout the week, encouraging customers to share stories about local first responders and hometown heroes who are deserving of a catered meal or bagged lunch. As an essential business, The Markets are committed to staying open and providing necessary items to the communities they serve.
