Assistance from SCF may be in the form of direct payment to providers for household living expenses, such as rent/mortgage, utilities, vehicle payments and insurance. The fund also provides health and wellness programs for drivers, such as free vaccinations and smoking cessation assistance, with the aim toward preventing some medical illnesses and negative effects. “Thank you, Pilot Company, for your generous and continued support of St. Christopher Fund,” said Shannon Currier, SCF director of philanthropy and development. “Professional drivers are facing this virus head-on as they crisscross the country delivering the essential supplies all Americans need, and this donation will help ensure that SCF will be there for our highway heroes when they need us most.” Truckers needing assistance from SCF can apply at truckersfund.org/application. To donate to SCF’s mission to support truckers and their families in financial need, visit truckersfund.org/donate or contact Shannon Currier at shannon@truckersfund.org.
