Wawa is excited to perk everyone’s morning, following its successful “Cheers to Classrooms,” initiative which provided 200,000 Free Cups of Coffee across its chain to teachers and administration through the month of September. In addition to providing free coffee, all 940 Wawa stores visited local schools to provide goodies and cheer and $25,000 was distributed across six states and Washington, DC to fully fund Donor’s Choose teacher requests for school resources and supplies. Wawa coffee is a proprietary, private-label blend, available only at Wawa stores and on Wawa.com.
About Wawa, Inc.
Wawa, Inc., a privately held company, began in 1803 as an iron foundry in New Jersey. Toward the end of the 19th Century, owner George Wood took an interest in dairy farming and the family began a small processing plant in Wawa, PA in 1902. The milk business was a huge success, due to its quality, cleanliness and “certified” process. As home delivery of milk declined in the early 1960s, Grahame Wood, George’s grandson, opened the first Wawa Food Market in 1964 as an outlet for dairy products. Today, Wawa is your all day, every day stop for freshly prepared foods, beverages, coffee, fuel services and surcharge-free ATMs. Wawa stores are located in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Florida and Washington, D.C. The stores offer a large fresh foodservice selection, including Wawa brands such as custom prepared hoagies, freshly-brewed coffee, hot breakfast sandwiches, specialty beverages and an assortment of soups, sides and snacks.
