Shell relaunches "The Giving Pump" across 7,500 stations in the US

Customers can use designated, purple fueling pumps across the country to support nonprofits and charitable organizations that help children and families in their communities.

Celebrating its fourth year, Shell has announced the return of ‘The Giving Pump,’ benefiting nonprofits across the US. 

Starting in September and running through October 31, a portion of purchases made by consumers who use the designated purple pump at select stations will support local children's and family-focused charities. This specific pump can be found across 47 states as part of Shell's Force For Good initiative to give back and drive positive change in local communities.

Starting at 2,900 locations in 2021, the number of stations participating in this two-month initiative has grown to more than 7,500 across the US.

"The Giving Pump is an easy and impactful way for customers to give back through the simple act of filling up their vehicles and we look forward to highlighting the many organizations whose mission is to aid children and families in their communities," said Barbara Stoyko, Senior Vice President, Mobility Americas at Shell.

This year, ‘The Giving Pump’ is supporting 552 local and national charities across the US. Customers have used these pumps 7.3 million times during the two-month campaign last August and September.
