For our customers it is a<br \/>\nvery convenient and simple way to make their contribution for people fighting<br \/>\ncancer, as the donation boxes are in every Circle K full service station all<br \/>\nover Estonia and, of course, in Baltic Station convenience stores.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But, in addition to our customers, our<br \/>\nemployees also donate for the charity \u2013 it is not uncommon for them to put<br \/>\ntheir tip into the donation boxes,&#8221; Diana Veigel added. &#8220;We thank<br \/>\neveryone who has made their contribution and I hope that together we can give<br \/>\nsomeone a very necessary opportunity and hope in the future as well in<br \/>\ncooperation with the foundation.&#8221;<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>&#8220;We appreciate all the people who have<br \/>\nfound our donation boxes at Circle K stations and made their donation<br \/>\nthere,&#8221; said Toivo T\u00e4navsuu,<br \/>\nthe head of the cancer treatment foundation. &#8220;These boxes allow us to do<br \/>\ngood collectively and passively.
