hands passing heart in sunshine

During its annual round-up campaign, TravelCenters of America (TA) collected nearly $153,000 for the St. Christopher Truckers Development and Relief Fund.

From Memorial Day to Labor Day, customers at TA, Petro, and TA Express locations were given the option to round up their purchases to the nearest dollar. The generous contributions will directly benefit professional drivers who are currently on a break from the road due to illness or injury.

The St. Christopher Truckers Development and Relief Fund provides critical aid to truckers and their families, offering financial support for basic necessities and guidance on navigating the healthcare system.

“The work of St. Christopher Truckers Relief Fund aligns with our mission to return every traveler to the road better than they came and we are committed to helping ensure professional drivers have access to critical resources during times of need,” said Debi Boffa, Chief Executive Officer of TA. “We thank our guests for their incredible generosity and supporting the heroic men and women who sacrifice so much to keep our economy moving.”

TA and SCF have had a strong partnership since 2010, with TA successfully raising over $3 million dollars for SCF through their campaigns and initiatives.
