Stater Bros. Charities partners with PepsiCo Rolling Remembrance to benefit the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation.

Since 2016, Stater Bros. Charities has proudly partnered with PepsiCo Rolling Remembrance to give back to Southern California communities through educational support. This year, they are excited to continue their investment in Southern California by pledging an additional $50,000 to continue benefiting Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation. Through this partnership, they have donated an impressive $350,000 to the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation, which provides essential scholarships and educational counseling to college students who have lost a parent in the military.

What is PepsiCo Rolling Remembrance?

First started by PepsiCo in 2015, Rolling Remembrance is a 8,000+ mile long relay of an American flag from Seattle to New York to benefit the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation. Using normal business routes, PepsiCo’s extensive network of U.S. Military Veteran drivers will pass off a flag to each other at different relay points. The flag was on a UH-60M Blackhawk Helicopter on a combat mission in support of U.S. and Coalition ground forces in the Kandahar Province of Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom in 2012. The Rolling Remembrance campaign occurs during April, Month of the Military Child and May, Military Appreciation Month.
