Pilot's Generous Donation Funds Scholarships for Future Truck Drivers
In a heartfelt gesture of support for the next generation of professional truck drivers, Pilot Travel Centers LLC has made a significant $50,000 donation to Folds of Honor. This contribution is aimed at funding scholarships that will help aspiring drivers obtain their commercial driver's licenses. The initiative aligns with the spirit of Giving Tuesday, a day dedicated to charitable donations and community support.
Wendy Hamilton, Chief of Staff at Pilot, expressed the company's commitment to honoring the brave individuals who serve the nation, including both truck drivers and military members. "It's an honor for Pilot to continue to celebrate and honor the incredible heroes across our country," Hamilton stated. She emphasized the importance of giving back to the families of those who have made sacrifices for the country through educational scholarships. "We look forward to seeing more truck drivers out here and are thankful for the work done through Folds of Honor and their scholarship programs."
