Boys & Girls Clubs of America is a youth advocacy organization working to ensure that all kids and teens have the same opportunities to succeed in life.

Serving 4.6 million young people annually, Clubs ensure all youth have the resources they need to achieve a great future – including a safe, supportive environment with caring adult mentors.

"As we begin to emerge from this crisis, it's critical that young people continue to get the support and resources they need to be successful," said Jim Clark, president and CEO, Boys & Girls Clubs of America. "We are so thankful to have Murphy USA and its customers as dedicated advocates for our mission. Their support will help maintain consistency of providing safe and affordable high-quality programming to our youth and their communities."

The cause campaign will run in phases, with Phase 1 running from April 7 – July 6 and Phase 2 beginning August 4 and concluding on November 2. During the campaign, customers can choose to make a monetary contribution of $1, $5 or $10, or round-up their purchases to the nearest dollar amount at checkout.
