Komen Breast Cancer Foundation Fundraiser WHAT: Ferrellgas is sponsoring a drawing for a limited-edition “pink ribbon” bicycle — the SGK Promise, by Felt Bicycles — to benefit the Susan G.

But the company’s commitment to this philosophy extends beyond simply the support of worthy causes such as the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Ferrellgas encourages and supports the involvement of its associates’, and in this case, a Kansas City-based breast cancer survivor seeking to raise funds to help others in need. Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. is a Fortune 1000 company and, through its operating partnership, Ferrellgas, L.P., serves more than 1 million customers in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Ferrellgas employees indirectly own more than 18 million common units of the partnership through an employee stock ownership plan. More information about the company can be found online at www.ferrellgas.com. Propane is a member of a family of chemical compounds called hydrocarbons, and is found in both crude oil and natural gas. When crude oil is drawn from a well, it is refined into various petroleum products. Propane is a derivative of this process. When natural gas is drawn out of the earth, it is a mixture of several hydrocarbon gases. Approximately 5 percent of this mixture is propane.
