Love’s Travel Stops is continuing its support of professional truck drivers by donating $100,000 to the St. Christopher Truckers Development and Relief Fund. The company has now helped the fund for the third time in assisting professional truck drivers and their families during difficult times.

“Professional truck drivers are essential to the country’s success, and Love’s can’t think of a better way to say ‘thank you’ than supporting them during difficult times. St. Christopher is a great organization that helps drivers every day, and we’re glad to continue to support the organization,”  said Jenny Love Meyer, Executive Vice President and Chief Culture Officer of Love’s.

Love’s first donation to St. Christopher was in April of 2020, when the company gave $100,000 to help drivers during the coronavirus pandemic. The relief fund helps with expenses like rent, mortgage, utilities, insurance and vehicle payments, as well as provides free health and wellness programs for its affiliates.

“The support St. Christopher Fund provides for professional drivers is possible because of the generosity of companies like Love’s Travel Stops. We greatly appreciate Love’s commitment to help us be a safety net for drivers when they need it most,” added Shannon Currier, Director of Philanthropy for St. Christopher.
