The annual Band Together for St. Christopher Truckers Development and Relief Fund begins today!
Travel Centers of America, Coffee Cup Fuel Stops and Sapp Brothers Travel Centers are participating in the campaign to help drivers who have financial difficulties due to a medical problem.
All guests employees will be invited to buy a wristband for $1 and/or a key chain for $5. Last year the campaign raised over $300,000. We would like to exceed that amount this year and reach $400,000.
To date, the SCF has given over $1.3 million on behalf of 1,575 drivers. All proceeds will benefit drivers.
“We cannot thank the donors and employees enough for all they do to make this campaign so successful,” Donna Kennedy, executive director of the St. Christopher Fund. “We are truly grateful.”
All proceeds from the Band Together Campaign goes directly to drivers in need.
Ohhhh….I was wondering what I just donated to…now I know. Awesome awesome cause! Will definitely donate more often!
Thanks Kristen for helping drivers!!!

Hi Wanda. So sorry to hear about your father-in-law’s illness. Please fill out the online application at https://truckersfund.org/application/. This is the first step in the process and will get the ball rolling.
As a driver I can appreciate your help to the drivers in need. Thank you. R. Nichols
Thank you Roy! We are glad we are able to be there for drivers when they need us!
I need to buy the 2017 bracelet but cant find a truckstop that still has any.
Hi Raymind,
Unfortunately, the bands are no longer available. Is there something we can help you with?
Just bought one at coffee cup truckstop in south dakota
Thank you for your support!
There is a TA Truck Stop @ The Rt 37 Granville/ Lancaster Ohio Exit Off of 70 That Has The Bands.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help out those drivers who are in desperate need. I was just made aware of this program and I donated. May God bless all of us drivers out here and especially those who are struggling with difficulties. May God bless you richly and reward you abundantly.
Thank you, Mr. Klassen, for your support. It it because of people like you that we are able to make a difference in the life of a driver.
Together, we can “save lives & families, one driver at a time”.
Very nice
I got a wristband I just didn’t know what it was for then I looked it up on my computer and saw. I’m glad that I now know I bought something that’s worth the price it actually came for.
Thanks, Miranda! And, thank you for your support of America’s drivers!
I got one!!!! This is a great cause! My hubby is a driver and I ride along. I have met some super nice drivers and families and when you are on the road it seems like one big family. I started a website for the ladies who ride along just for fun and to swap stories. Reneethetruckerswife.com..good luck on this years campaign!
Thanks for the support, Renee! We will check out your website. Safe travels!
