Why promote Fuel the Cure? 

Fuel the Cure is a campaign special to Nebraska that raises money for breast cancer research and educates drivers about healthier fuel options using ethanol. Nebraska is also the No. 2 producer of ethanol in the country! 

Fuel the Cure kicks off Oct. 1 every year and participating retailers will donate 3 cents toward cancer research and services within the state for every gallon of higher ethanol blend sold between Oct. 1-31. In the past six years, Fuel the Cure has raised more than $64K. 

Ethanol-Blended Gasoline: Good for You, Good for the Environment

Gasoline blended with ethanol isn’t just a cleaner fuel; it’s healthier for you and the environment. Traditional gasoline contains toxic aromatics, such as BTEX, which make up 25% of a gallon of gas. These aromatics pose health risks when inhaled at the pump, from vehicle exhaust, and as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Ethanol, with its high-octane value, allows oil refiners to reduce aromatic content in gasoline by at least 5%. This percentage increases significantly when using higher ethanol blends like E15 and E30. As the No. 2 producer of ethanol in the nation, Nebraska is leading the way in providing eco-friendly fuel options.
