TravelCenters of America raises $100,000 for St. Christopher Truckers Relief Fund
TravelCenters of America (TA) raised more than $100,000 for the St. Christopher Truckers Relief Fund (SCF) through its latest annual charity golf tournament. The contribution marks the largest single-year total generated by the event since the partnership between TA and SCF first began in 2017.
The proceeds will provide short-term financial relief to professional drivers and their families facing financial hardship due to illness or injury.
“TravelCenters of America has been an incredible partner to the St. Christopher Fund for nearly
a decade,” said Courtney Niemann, executive director of SCF, in a news release. “This milestone contribution demonstrates the power of sustained corporate support and the meaningful impact it can have on drivers and their families when they need it most.”
“Professional drivers keep this country moving, and supporting their well-being is a responsibility we take seriously. Our annual golf tournament is one way we can rally our vendor partners, our team members, and our industry around the drivers who need us most. We’re proud to stand with the St. Christopher Truckers Relief Fund and to help strengthen the safety net for the men and women who spend their lives on the road,” added Jason Nordin, CEO, TravelCenters of America.
Since 2017, TA has contributed annually to SCF through its charity golf tournament, with
contributions steadily increasing over time.
