BBBSSM, which serves hundreds of youth through mentoring relationships, expressed profound gratitude for Sheetz’s contribution. The donation will play a vital role in supporting the organization’s mission to ignite the potential of area youth by fostering meaningful, one-on-one mentoring relationships. Jennifer Spitler, president and CEO of BBBSSM, emphasized the importance of such partnerships: “Funding from partners like Sheetz is crucial in making our mentoring programs possible. Their support helps us continue our work to create impactful mentoring experiences that shape the futures of our young people.”

This donation is only a part of Sheetz’s long-standing commitment to giving back to the communities they serve. The convenience chain has a history of philanthropy, providing financial support to local food banks, volunteering with Special Olympics chapters, and helping families in need during the holidays. For Sheetz, every store opening represents more than just business growth—it’s an opportunity to become a pillar of community support.

Recently named one of the “Companies that Care” by Great Place to Work and PEOPLE Magazine, Sheetz is committed to both its employees and the communities it serves. As Sheetz’s presence in Southeast Michigan grows, so too will its positive impact, continuing to inspire other companies to follow suit in making meaningful community contributions.

The Romulus store opening is a celebration not just of a new business, but of the strong partnerships being formed between Sheetz and organizations like BBBSSM, proving that we are truly “Bigger Together.”
