SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- It started out to be a terrific Tuesday for 31 customers at Basin Markets Sinclair Station in Salt Lake City’s downtown area when they were surprised with a free tank of gas as part of Verizon’s “Fuel the Love” campaign, recently. Salt Lake City joins Kansas City ,Dallas, Cincinnati, Las Vegas, Madison, Portland, Phoenix, Indianapolis and Tampa as locations where Verizon, the network America relies on, has surprised and delighted people all in the name of kindness.

"The power of these unexpected random acts of kindness are impactful to the people in the local communities,” said Steven Keller, Consumer Vice President with Verizon’s Consumer Group. “During each and every retail experience, our V Teamers get the opportunity to make a difference in our customers’ lives. I hope events like Fuel the Love will motivate and remind people to be kind and pay it forward.”

While Verizon is helping people save money directly at the pump in these select locations, it’s also making sure people know the value that comes with being a Verizon customer each and every day. For instance:

Verizon will not be promoting its Fuel the Love events in advance, but will share pictures and information from each of them after they take place. You can learn more about the #ACallForKindness campaign and join our pledge at verizon.com/kindness.
