3,500,000 salutes to the heroes that drive our economy by driving their trucks! National Truck Driver Appreciation Week is being celebrated September 13 to 19th.
This year these drivers have once again come to the rescue of all Americans by delivering essential items during a pandemic that continues to affect all our lives and livelihoods. These heroes have literally been on the front lines, risking their personal health and safety to provide our country with life’s necessities. Items such as medicine, food, fuel, dry goods, and emergency supplies continue to be delivered to small communities and major metropolitan cities across our country without interruption. For your hard work and bravery, we salute you!
It isn’t just for the pandemic that drivers need to receive recognition. Drivers are the first to arrive with relief supplies when a disaster strikes a community or a state. We have had hurricanes, earthquakes, forest fires, tornadoes, and floods to name a few that drivers have responded to with needed and often lifesaving supplies. For your hard work and bravery, we salute you!
These drivers and their commitment deserve our sincere appreciation not just this week but on a daily basis. These 3.5 million drivers help all of us to keep our economy moving and to enhance our quality of life. Without these dedicated professional drivers our economy would quickly grind to a halt. Treat them with respect as you would first responders because that is who they are and what they do for all of us.
Take some time this week to reach out and show your appreciation and respect for America’s professional truck drivers.
