Want to make a holiday donation to help trucking families?

Trucking charities lack the reach of some of the more general charities out there asking for your dollars this Christmas Season. So we wanted to give you an idea of where you can donate to causes focused on truckers.

You can donate to Truckers for Troops all year long.

You can donate to The St. Christopher Truckers Relief Fund at TruckersFund.org – on the front page, just click on the blue “Donate Now” button. They collect all year to help truckers whenever they are in need.

Each year, one $2,000 scholarship and four $1,000 scholarships are given from the OOIDA Mary Johnston Scholarship Fund. Each is renewable for up to four years. You can go to OOIDA.com/scholarship-program/ and click on the orange donate button.

Truckers Final Mile provides gifts to children who have lost a trucking parent through their Sleigh Bells for Santa program. You can send monetary donations to their secure PayPal page.

The Truckers Christmas Group collects money to help needy trucking families during the holidays. They sell items through their online store and take direct monetary donations as well. Go to www.TruckersChristmasGroup.org and click on the donate button, or browse the online store through Dec. 13.
