Fueling Good

The philosophy of Fueling Good can be seen in all aspects of the CITGO brand. It means recognizing and rewarding those doing good in the CITGO community footprint. Safe operations and environmental stewardship are core values demonstrated year after year through industry recognition and awards for safety and environmental performance; coastal area cleanup and restoration; and large-scale e-recycling events. CITGO provides fuel to first responders, sponsors local food banks and helps rebuild and restore communities in the aftermath of disasters. Team CITGO employees clock an average of 11,000 volunteer hours each year and raise significant money for the United Way, MS Society, and other organizations. Along with its Marketers and Retailers, CITGO is the largest corporate sponsor of the Muscular Dystrophy Association; and is the official fuel sponsor of the Boston Marathon. With every gallon, CITGO fuels the engine of good, promoting positive change every day. For more information, visit http://www.CITGO.com.
