WEST DES MOINES, IA - The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association's (IRFA) Drive Clean campaign is helping Iowa teens celebrate Prom safely - and drive cleaner while they do it.

Drive Clean, an educational campaign focused on helping young drivers make smart fuel choices, is offering donations to support high school After-Prom events across the state.

"We want young drivers to feel confident when they pull up to the pump - not just on Prom night, but every day," said IRFA Marketing Director Lisa Coffelt. "Choosing Unleaded 88 helps them save money, reduce emissions, and support Iowa farmers. Partnering with schools to promote safe driving and smart fuel choices makes After-Prom even more meaningful. Drive Safe. Drive Clean."

The Drive Clean donation will include a $25 gas card along with a Drive Clean branded t-shirt, lanyard, stickers and air freshener. Schools can request a donation online here or contact IRFA's Marketing Director Lisa Coffelt at [email protected] for details.

Drive Clean encourages teens ages 14-18 to choose Unleaded 88 at the pump. Unleaded 88, also known as E15, is a 15% ethanol blend approved for vehicles model year 2001 and newer. To learn more, follow @DriveCleanIowa on Instagram and TikTok.
