    Troops To Transportation and Logistics (T2TL) is the specific program under the CASY umbrella which tries to place veterans in jobs based on the skill set they acquired during their service. There are lots of veterans with logistics and transportation expertise, and CASY-T2TL will help connect them with businesses across the country. We have seven veterans who already work for us, and we'd like to see all veterans with logistics experience have the opportunity to find a home in our industry.

    We have begun setting aside a percentage of money from each load of freight we move (Including yours) and donate it to Corporate America Supports You, otherwise known as CASY.

    We'd like to ask our friends, competitors, customers, and carriers to join us in supporting CASY-T2TL. A flyer is attached with more information, and you can always go to their website at http://casy.msccn.org/Employers/T2TL.html
    In fact, we ask other businesses to try to match or even surpass our donation. We are happy to get the ball rolling! Please feel free to contact me with any question or if you are interested in getting setup to work with us please feel free to contact me.
