Continuing our partnership with the Fuel for Schools Programme, we’re giving back.
In another instalment of our partnership with Fern Energy, our fuel supplier’s sponsorship programme “Fuel for Schools” continues in the spirit of “keeping the wheels turning” as we give back to the local community.
Traffic Safe NZ have been able to convert our fuel spend into another dollar donation. Lepperton School in Taranaki, was the recipient of 4 new laptops, and together with our partners, Northpower, these were handed over at a school assembly by Karl Hitchcock, Traffic Safe NZ Director and Badinlee Munro-Smith, Traffic Safe NZ Taranaki Operations Manager.
As reported earlier this year, Fern Energy’s sponsorship programme “Fuel for Schools” helps deliver resources to rural schools.
They work with schools to ensure the correct resources are being channelled back into the community, and this uniquely designed sponsorship programme has helped put over $1.7 million of resources into more than 600 rural schools in the last fifteen years.
The programme works simply. Customers nominate a participating school to receive 50 cents for every 100L of bulk fuel. Once they reach their target, this can be redeemed for products from the variety of technology, sports, or literature packages on offer. It’s that simple.
We would like to thank our partners Northpower and Fern Energy for their contribution and wish Lepperton School lots of happy learning hours on the laptops!
