PHILLIPSBURG – USA Clean Fuels on E. Hwy 36 in Phillipsburg wrapped up a 3 cent per gallon fundraiser in support of local healthcare on December 31, 2018.

The event, “Fuel up to Improve our Air and Support our Healthcare” began three months prior, on October 1, in partnership with the Phillips County Healthcare Foundation (PCHF) as a way to promote the health benefits of using ethanol blended fuel versus traditional gasoline.

In that span of time 48,823 gallons of higher ethanol blends were sold, amounting to a $1,465 donation to the foundation.

“The Phillips County Healthcare Foundation really appreciates USA Clean Fuels’ support. Providing funds to assist in proving quality local healthcare providers, while also bolstering local ag producers and helping the environment is a great combination,” said Rance Ames, chairman of the Phillips County Healthcare Foundation.

The beneficiaries of PCHF are the Phillips County EMS, the Phillips County Health Department, the Logan Manor, the Phillips County Retirement Center, the Wellness Center, and Phillips County Health Systems.
