Custard Cup may have had their official final day for 2026 back on Sunday, October 25; but the book was not closed until Friday’s (Oct 30) CUSTOMER LOVE DAY, and the season’s final two SCOOPS OF LOVE check presentations to local organizations. One was a $2,000.27 check for the Danville Public School Foundation, and the Foundation’s Stephanie Yates stated the timing could not have been better, as their new campaign for 2027 starts November 1st.
AUDIO: We are just so grateful to be considered for this. It’s an amazing program that helps so many in the community. We are going to apply it to our campaign; our mission of providing enhanced educational opportunities for the children at District 118 schools.

AUDIO: Starting last year we started opening up and doing this extra “Customer Love Day;” just a way to give back to the amazing support the community gives us, not only us but the SCOOPS OF LOVE, giving back to the community and partnering with us to do that. Just a way for us to say thank you.
And in addition, all the money taken in from the Friday, October 30th Customer Love Day is headed for the St. James Food Pantry.
