GPM Investments, LLC is kicking off December with the MDA Holiday Retail Campaign, a fundraiser to support the Muscular Dystrophy Association’s (MDA) mission.

The retailer will run the campaign from December 1 through December 31, 2024, at approximately 1,500 locations and in 27 states across the United States. Customers can purchase a $1 or $5 pinup or round up their purchase, with proceeds going to MDA.

“Donations made by customers will be displayed on special MDA Holiday pinups in each location, showing support for MDA families. For more than 13 years, GPM Investments has raised funds to accelerate research, advance care and advocate to empower families living with muscular dystrophy, ALS and related neuromuscular diseases,” said GPM.

“We are delighted to partner with the Muscular Dystrophy Association to support local families. These funds support critical research and care for individuals with neuromuscular diseases and help them live in a world of limitless possibilities,” said Arie Kotler, president and CEO of ARKO Corp. “We are truly thankful for our incredible store employees and customers for their time and donations. This support will have such a positive impact on people in our community.”

"When communities come together to support the Muscular Dystrophy Association during the holiday season, it means we are able to offer more meaningful moments in life to our MDA families. Dollars raised from our retail partners and their customers translate into breakthroughs in treatments, access to clinical care and advocacy to educate and support people diagnosed with neuromuscular diseases,” added Morgan Roth, chief marketing officer, MDA.
