Wawa is bringing back its “Cheers to Classrooms” promotion for the month of August in Florida to celebrate educators and administrators doing the work to educate, guide and inspire students across the state, according to the press release.

“Wawa is excited to bring back its Cheers to Classrooms initiative to put a smile on the faces of teachers and administration that work so hard to do the same for children in our community,” said Robert Yeatts, senior director of store operations, Wawa. “Our associates are also looking forward to visiting local schools throughout the month to welcome teachers back into the classroom and show our appreciation for everything they do!”

The promotion will include a free any-size hot coffee or fountain beverage for teachers and school administration when they mention their role upon checkout at the register.

Wawa also will be continuing its charitable endeavors, “Through a partnership with Donor’s Choose, an online resource for teachers to submit funding requests for school supplies/support, Wawa has designated a $25,000 chainwide matching fund to support schools throughout its operating area. Teachers can submit a project at www.donorschoose.org and those schools that meet Wawa’s funding criteria could receive matching funds.”

The Cheers to Classrooms promotion will come to the Mid-Atlantic region in September.

Wawa is also bringing a new location to Tennessee with the announcement of plans to open in Springfield, about 30 miles north of Nashville, according to WSMV.com.
