Yocum Oil Supports Fight Against Cancer
Every week, we receive many
requests for contributions to local community events, individual sponsorships,
and charitable organizations. As we
continue our expansion deeper into the markets we operate within and expand into
new communities, the opportunities for giving continue to grow.
Our mission
statement refers to our commitment to enhancing the livelihood of our
customers and our value statement specifically states how we intend to carry out
that commitment.
Social
Responsibility-
We are part of the communities we serve; we believe in giving back to those who
are actual and potential customers, recognizing that we cannot do everything,
and must be fiscally sound when making those decisions. It is important to serve
the community with our personal commitment, not just the pocket book. We make
efforts to recognize and promote the importance of both work and personal
fulfillment in this endeavor.
In
2005, the Yocum Oil Executive Team set aside contribution dollars for communities we
serve for funding breast cancer research and treatment.
Our participation in Daffodil Days was a part of that commitment.
We
are also pleased to support the Twin Cities’ Breast Cancer Three-Day Walk.
This is a very reputable organization that we have chosen to support and
are equally excited to have had two employees participate in the Walk.
Yocum Oil Company, Inc. donated $500 to The Susan G. Komen
Breast Cancer Foundation.
