ALOHA PETROLEUM SUPPORTS TOYS FOR TOTS
**Big Island and O'ahu Island Mini-Mart Locations to Collect Funds**
HONOLULU - Aloha Petroleum, Ltd. is helping Toys for Tots make this holiday season a little brighter for hundreds of island children. Beginning November 15 through December 15, 2006, Aloha Petroleum Island Mini-Mart locations on O'ahu and the Big Island will accept cash donations for the Toys For Tots campaign. Toys for Tots will use the financial contributions to purchase toys to benefit needy children in Hawaii.
"Aloha Petroleum is proud to support the Marine Corps Reserves Toys for Tots program and we urge our customers to donate cash contributions for Toys for Tots while they fill their gas tanks at Aloha Petroleum Island Mini-Mart locations," said Larry Adams, marketing director for Aloha Petroleum, Ltd. "We want to ensure island keiki of all ages get a gift from their holiday wish list and customer cash donations will especially help this cause."
Aloha Petroleum has a history in Hawaii that dates back to the early 1900s. Today, Aloha employs approximately 350 Hawaii residents, and operates 80 fueling locations on Oahu and the Big Island of Hawaii. In addition to its retail fuel network, Aloha provides fuel and lubricants to hundreds of commercial and government customers. Its operations are supported by a large fleet of delivery vehicles and two fuel storage terminals in Campbell Industrial Park on Oahu and in Hilo on the Big Island.
