Convenience stores gave or collected almost $1 billion destined for charities in the past year, according to a new report by the National Association of Convenience Stores.
The median direct contribution was $4100 per store, and $2500 in collected donations. More than 97 percent of the stores that responded to the survey said they donated to charities.

Mahesh Shah, better known as Mike, and his wife Rashmi are the patriarchs and founders of Southeast Petro. Starting with purchasing their first gas station and convenience store in 1980, they have built Southeast Petro into what it is today.
Mike was born and raised in a small farm village in Pavi Jetpur, India, where he gives his father and grandparents homage for teaching him early on about hard work and how to treat others. He married Rashmi in 1971 after earning a degree in architecture from Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda.
