TravelCenters of America partnered with Mobil Delvac heavy-duty diesel engine oil to donate $50,000 to Folds of Honor, an organization providing educational scholarships to the spouses and children of America’s fallen and disabled service members.
This is the fourth year in a row TA and Mobil Delvac diesel engine oil have come together to support the organization on behalf of its customers, and as a thank you for their loyalty.
Since launching in 2007, Folds of Honor has awarded nearly 28,000 educational scholarships to the families of these American heroes. There are more than 1 million disabled and fallen service members and nearly 2 million dependents of military heroes adversely affected by war.
“The mission of Folds of Honor portrays perfectly our appreciation for Veterans and our desire to educate the leaders of tomorrow. We want to honor Veterans’ sacrifice and educate their legacy,” said Barry Richards, president of TA.
“Veterans sacrifice so much in service to our country and we are proud to honor them by supporting scholarships that will aid their families and improve their lives through education,” added Kristine Amy, Mobil Delvac USA commercial brand manager.
To date, TA and Mobil Delvac heavy-duty diesel engine oil have donated a total of $200,000 to Folds of Honor.
