Jiffy Mart's 'Cups That Count' Program Supports Westminster High School

announced its new “Cups That Count” program, a program that will support

Each Jiffy Mart location will feature a 20 oz. travel mug stamped with “The Cups That Count” logo, school logo and school colors. For each cup that is sold, $2 of that sale will be donated directly to that featured school.

The first school partnering with Jiffy Mart in this new program is Westminster High School. Customers purchasing this cup will have the added benefit of receiving their first fill free and a discounted refill price when using the cup for future fountain soda purchases.

Dwayne Cover, Jiffy Mart business manager said, “the name of this program is very fitting as the cups sold really do count. All proceeds from the cup sales go directly back to the local school to support our customer's kids and their education right here in the county.”

“Purchasing a Cup That Counts will not only raise money for the schools but the reusable mug is also good for the environment”, said Tom Moser, general manager.

Jiffy Mart, a division of Tevis Oil, currently operates four stores in Carroll County.  Two locations are in Westminster, one in Finksburg and one in Hampstead. Tevis Oil was formed in 1932.  In 1981, Tevis Oil diversified into the convenience store industry.

The first store, located in Finksburg and originally called Tevco, was primarily a self-service truck stop featuring less expensive, unbranded gasoline, along with hot food, drinks, and several convenience items. After the success of the first store, Tevis Oil continued to open new stores over the years with each one offering a little more than the last. In 1987 the Jiffy Mart brand was born and in 2001 all Tevco convenience stores were branded Jiffy Mart.
