Ensuring Meals & Facilities Are Available For Truckers Across Canada During The Covid-19 Pandemic

Apr 20, 2020 - 5 years ago

Our mission to #feedatrucker is a grassroots community movement started in Kamloops, BC with the guidance and support of BC business owners and the BC Trucking Association to ensure truckers across Canada have the resources & support they need during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

OUR MISSION

As the COVID-19 crisis progresses, professional truck drivers have been having an increasingly difficult time accessing food, restrooms, and other resources while on the road. The closure of restaurants and with the inability of truck drivers to simply walk up to drive-thru windows has left the industry looking for alternatives.

Meals For Truck Drivers have been established by a group of British Columbia business owners along with the BC Trucking Association to mobilize the food truck industry to bring meals, along with portable wash facilities, to card locks in locations in need around the province. As the movement and need have grown, so have the resources the community has gathered grown.

Not only does this help to address the needs of drivers, but also puts many workers in the otherwise shut down food truck industry back to work.
