Buy a Boot
Our 2024 Buy a Boot campaign has raised $86,839 to date across 172 convenience stores for NC Guardsmen!
What Is the Buy a Boot Campaign?
During the weeks before and after Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Veterans Day, participating members of the North Carolina Petroleum and Convenience Store Marketers (NCPCM) association conduct a “Buy A Boot” fundraising campaign inside participating stores. All proceeds benefit the North Carolina Soldiers and Airmen Assistance Fund (SAAF-NC), which then distributes funds to North Carolina guardsmen and families in need.
Campbell Oil Company and Minuteman Food Stores present SAAF-NC with a check for $16,839.30 raised at their North Carolina convenience stores via Buy-A-Boot.
How Does Buy a Boot Work?
Look for a Buy a Boot display at participating convenience stores across North Carolina and participating around patriotic holidays – Han-Dee Hugo’s, Minuteman Food Mart, Duck Thru Stores, Fisher Fuel Mart, and more. For just $1, you can buy a boot and add your name or honor a loved one or Guardsmen. Your boot will be displayed in the store throughout the campaign!
