Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Our goals are:
1. to improve the quality of life for the people in the transportation industry. Our motto is " We get'em safe, get'em fed, and get 'em home" 2. expand on the educational aspect of the industry to promote a less stressful, safer, and more profitable environment..
3. be a source of support
4. to be a voice in the industry through hearing the questions and concerns and get those to areas that will be able to address them.
5. trouble shooting and finding resources to resolve issues that will make it a safer industry.

To expand our resources and volunteer following.
To increase the knowledge base of the general public to educate them on what we do.
To continue research products and resource that can be utilized to meet the needs of our clients as well as the industry in general.

With over a hundred years of cumulative experience in the transportation industry, a vast variety of educational and professional skill levels, outside resources, along with the concern and compassion for people in general we feel that our capabilities are endless.

We have expanded and grown much this year through the hard work and determination from our volunteers that are committed to making sure that the long forgotten people in the transportation industry have the means to make their lives more beneficial to themselves, their families, their communities, and their country.
