Fleet Advantage foundation donates $10,000 during National Truck Driver Appreciation Week
Foundation honors truck drivers and their families.
As economic and market changes have continued to add significant challenges for America’s truck driving community, Fleet Advantageannounced a donation of $10,000 through its Kids Around The Corner Foundation to truckersfinalmile.orgas a way to show its ongoing appreciation during this week’s National Truck Driver Appreciation Week (#NTDAW22).
The truckersfinalmile.org mission aims to reunite North American truck drivers and their families in times of crisis loss of life, debilitating injury, or serious illness. To date, 31 children under age 18 have lost a truck driver parent out on the road and these are just from the families they have assisted. Through its Kids Around The Corner foundation, Fleet Advantage has been an official sponsor of the program and the contribution helps secure a total of twenty (20) college education savings accounts through the program’s Sleigh Bells and Santa Christmas campaign. It is their annual campaign during the holidays to help children that experience a loss of a parent truck driver out on the road and away from home. Many of these children suddenly find themselves in a single-parent household where changes and sacrifices are needed. Last year, Fleet Advantage’s contribution helped secure ten (10) college education savings accounts.
