Kwik Care Karl
With his bright smile and enthusiastic spirit, Kwik Care Karl is a friendly face dedicated to sharing the deals at Kwik Stop and spreading awareness for our local non-profits in the tri-state area.
A furry friend to all, Karl is often seen giving bear hugs and high fives to everyone he meets. He loves to spread cheer at local community events, attend Kwik Care Neighborhood Change partner check presentations, and get into shenanigans! Karl is a proud Kwik Stop Rewards Member and always has his sidekick fill their gas tank up at Kwik Stop’s Fuel 4 Schools pumps. Every year he is quite excited for Magical Kwik Stop Christmas season and meeting Mr. and Mrs. Claus at Santa Day.
