Residents of Boise have a unique opportunity to fill up their tanks for free this Friday, as a local gas station will offer complimentary fuel. This initiative is a collaborative effort between Fence & Lumber, a locally owned business, and the radio station 103.5 KISS FM.
Community Support and Local Business
Fence & Lumber, known for its premium lumber liquidation, has recently expanded into the Treasure Valley with a new store in Kuna. To celebrate this expansion and show appreciation to the community, they are sponsoring this free gas event. The exact location of the participating gas station will remain a secret until it is revealed live on the radio at 3:15 PM on Friday, June 5th, by Mateo from 103.5 KISS FM.
Once the location is disclosed, teams from both Fence & Lumber and 103.5 KISS FM will be on-site to pump free gas until the allocated funds are exhausted. This gesture comes at a time when many are feeling the financial strain of rising fuel prices, which have been a concern since the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Addressing Economic Challenges
Fuel prices have been a significant burden for many families, with costs approaching $5.00 per gallon in some areas. This event aims to alleviate some of that pressure, even if only temporarily, for local drivers. It reflects a broader commitment to supporting the community during challenging economic times.
By offering free gas, Fence & Lumber not only introduces itself to the Treasure Valley community but also reinforces the importance of local businesses supporting their neighbors. This event is a reminder of the power of community and the positive impact that businesses can have when they engage with and support local residents.
