JESTER’S COURT DONATES $1,600 TO LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS

Jester’s Court stores, the convenience store operations supported by Breaux Petroleum, recently donated $1,600 in total to local organizations throughout the community. More than 6,500 Shell stations participated nationwide during the two-month campaign. Since launching Force For Good, Shell has continued to spotlight the important role fuel wholesalers play in strengthening the communities where they work and live.

“The Giving Pump is a tradition we look forward to every year because it lets us directly impact the communities our customers call home,” said Bud Breaux, president of the family-owned operating companies of Jester’s Court stores. “We’re grateful for the opportunity to be able to support local organizations through this year’s campaign.”
