Ryan and Kirk had an incredible time representing our Workforce Heroes program at the Randall Children's Hospital Touch-a-Truck event in Portland, Oregon. Throughout the day, they had the opportunity to connect with more than 1,000 attendees sharing the importance of safe driving around commercial trucks while also giving families a glimpse into the rewarding careers they have built in the trucking industry.

We are always grateful for the chance to engage with our communities, inspire future generations, and reinforce the life-saving message of safely sharing the road with large trucks.
