Support a good cause by filling up your tank with gas or diesel later this month in the North Okanagan.

As part of Fuel Good Day on Sept. 18, 10 cents from every litre of fuel sold at Armstrong Regional Cooperative Gas Bars will be donated to local charities.

Each gas station involved will be supporting a different non-profit charity.

The Armstrong Gas Bar will donate to the Okanagan Boys and Girls Club - Armstrong Food Bank, while the Salmon Arm Gas Bar will support the Shuswap Hospital Foundation and the Vernon Gas Bar will support the North Okanagan Hospice Society.

During Fuel Good Day, the Armstrong Co-op gas bars will have giveaways, member draws, a barbeque, music, visits from the mascot Cooper and player visits from the Salmon Arm Silverbacks, Vernon Vipers and North Okanagan Knights.

The event runs throughout the day on a Tuesday.
