Wawa Charities Program
The Wawa Charities Program is comprised of Associate contributions and corporate funds. The Wawa Charities Committee meets semi-annually, in February and July, to distribute grants to causes and organizations within the communities and neighborhoods where we live and work. Funds are equally divided throughout our market area.
The goal of the Wawa Charities Program is to positively impact our communities by supporting programs and organizations that address issues our associates feel are most important. Each year, we survey our associates to determine how the funds should be distributed.
Currently, the Wawa Charities Program supports the following issues:
- AIDS Research
- Cancer Research
- Childrens' Health
- Domestic/Sexual Violence
- Heart Disease
- Hunger
