May 1, 2026
The Spinx Company, the Greenville, S.C.-based fuel and convenience retail company, hosted PepsiCo’s Rolling Remembrance relay stop on Monday, April 28 at Spinx #297 in Greenville. The ceremony honors fallen U.S. service members while raising awareness and support for military families through the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation.
During the event, Spinx made a $5,000.00 donation to the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation.
“Welcoming Spinx as a partner in this year’s Rolling Remembrance campaign is truly meaningful. Children of fallen servicemembers deserve every opportunity to build the futures their parents fought to protect, and it takes partners like Spinx to make that possible. For our Gold Star families, seeing Spinx show up for them is a powerful reminder that their loved ones are not forgotten. We are so grateful to have them with us.” – Lily Long, Director of Development, Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation.
First started by PepsiCo in 2015, Rolling Remembrance is a 14,000+ mile long relay of a war flown American flag from Seattle to New York to benefit 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.
