Perhaps you know that this summer, St. Innocent's Academy is travelling throughout the United States? Our trip will bring us to dozens of cities and will carry us from coast to coast to coast...

Please consider your donation soon - The Academy travels June 11 to August 21. Donations can be made while we are on the road.

...But you probably didn't know that we are powering one of our two school-buses with clean vegetable oil! Perhaps you are wondering, "How can I help make this environmentally-friendly voyage possible?"

Here is how you can be a part of the voyage: Simply donate a new 4.6 gallon jug of non-hydrogenated canola or soybean oil (not peanut oil) to one of the dozens of pickup locations listed below. Your donation will go directly into our vegetable oil tanks when we arrive at that destination! Some locations will take your oil directly, while others are only accepting checks for the purchase of oil. This information is listed below, along with the location nearest you. If you need to make arrangements with a contact, you may email them by clicking their name. You may also email Fr. Deacon Joshua Resnick with questions. Please download our oil collection flyer.

Important Notice: Be prepared to return your oil. In case of a break down of our buses, be sure that the store you purchased oil from will allow it to be returned if it is un-opened, and remember to save your receipt. If they will not accept returns, please make your donation by check.

Please continue to donate even if we have already traveled through a location, as the collected money will pay for vegetable oil at our current location.

The Academy would like to extend special thanks to all of the individuals and communities that have donated oil to our trip. So far our veggie-bus has gone over 5000 miles on donated oil! We would also like to thank Golden Fuel Systems, PlantDrive, Rover Hybrids, and many others who have helped to make the veggie-bus a reality.
