EL DORADO, Ark., Nov. 19, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Murphy USA Inc. (NYSE: MUSA) is excited to announce that for 2020 a total of $1.55 million will be donated to Boys & Girls Clubs of America through the ‘Great Futures Fueled Here’ cause campaign, going above and beyond the original goal of $500,000. Thanks to the efforts of the company’s employees and customers, more funds will be going to support Boys & Girls Clubs in the same communities served by Murphy USA stores.

Despite the start of the pandemic, Murphy USA remained committed to supporting the communities where their employees live and work by launching the campaign, especially since kids and families needed Boys & Girls Clubs services now more than ever. The multi-phase cause campaign launched on April 1 and concluded in September. Customers chose to make a monetary contribution of $1, $5 or $10, or round-up their purchases to the nearest dollar amount at checkout.

“We have been amazed by the generosity of our customers and employees who have tripled our original commitment of $500,000 to support Boys & Girls Clubs members, said Andrew Clyde, President and CEO of Murphy USA. “In these trying times, the Boys & Girls Clubs’ mission is more important than ever. We have been deeply moved and proud to see the generous spirit that our customers and employees demonstrated throughout this years’ campaign.”

Boys & Girls Clubs of America is a youth advocacy organization working to ensure that all kids and teens have the same opportunities to succeed in life. With more than 4,700 Boys & Girls Clubs serving 4.6 million young people annually, the organization has also shifted to meet the needs of kids, families and communities. Many Boys & Girls Clubs are now open all day, supporting children with virtual learning in addition to their traditional programming. Boys & Girls Clubs ensures that all youth have the resources they need to achieve a great future – including a safe, supportive environment and caring adult mentors.

“As the nation endures continued uncertainty during the COVID-19 pandemic, long-term impacts are emerging for our youth such as safety and well-being, learning loss, and racial and social equity,” said Jim Clark, president and CEO, Boys & Girls Clubs of America. “We would like to say thank you to Murphy USA and its customers for their support. There are not enough words to describe how grateful we are to have their support in providing great futures for America’s kids.
