Today through December 1, guests across Casey’s Country are invited to round up at the register in any of Casey’s nearly 3,000 stores and add a donation to orders placed online or in the Casey’s app. Casey’s has set a goal of raising $1.3 million through this year’s campaign, which includes a one-time $25,000 contribution from PepsiCo.

“Supporting those who have served and sacrificed for our country is core to who we are at Casey’s, and every year, I’m incredibly proud of how our team members, guests and partners answer the call to stand with our military community,” said Darren Rebelez, president and CEO of Casey’s, and a veteran of the United States Army. “This campaign turns that gratitude and generosity into meaningful action for veterans, active-duty service members and their loved ones.”

Supporting those who serve their communities, including military service members and veterans, is a pillar of Casey’s giving strategy, and since 2012, its annual round-up campaign in service of that mission has raised more than $12 million in support of veterans, service members and military families. Last year alone, through the generosity of its team members, guests and partners at PepsiCo, Casey’s contributed more than $1.2 million to veteran support organizations including HOPE.

"PepsiCo’s longtime partnership with Casey’s is rooted in a shared commitment to the communities we serve,” said Elizabeth Earl, Vice President, Sales, North Central Region, PepsiCo Beverages U.S. “We are proud to once again join Casey’s in supporting Hope For The Warriors to reach even more veterans, service members and military families. We’re especially grateful to the Casey’s guests whose individual contributions add up to meaningful support for military families across the country.”

HOPE is a national nonprofit dedicated to helping military veterans, active-duty service members, caregivers and families of the fallen find stability and support as they recover or transition to civilian life. Through 20 years of service, HOPE delivers critical needs assistance, clinical support and community connection programs that foster resilience and holistic wellness for the military community.

"For 20 years, Hope For The Warriors has seen what’s possible when communities come together around those who have served,” said Robin Kelleher, President and CEO of Hope For The Warriors. “Casey’s has turned that spirit of community into action year after year, giving its team members and guests a simple way to make a meaningful difference. Every dollar raised helps HOPE provide critical support, strengthen military families and ensure we can be there when veterans and families reach out for help. We are incredibly grateful to Casey’s, PepsiCo and every guest who chooses to round up."

As a small token of great appreciation to those who have served, Casey’s will offer military service members a complimentary coffee or fountain drink at any Casey’s location, plus free car wash where available, on Veterans Day. Casey’s proudly offers coffee and fountain drinks at no cost to military personnel and on duty, uniformed first responders including law enforcement, fire and EMS year-round.

Through the generosity of its guests, team members, and partners, Casey’s donated $8.3 million toward core needs in its communities in fiscal year 2026. To learn more about Casey’s community impact, visit caseys.com/community/our-impact.
