Many have never heard of this great organization and all that they do to make Christmas a little easier for a Trucking Family in need at Christmas . They have helped over 125 families enjoy the holiday season in the last 8 years, and Raised over $73,000 .
Although they are based in the United States of America they help drivers in need across North America. Both Canadian and US drivers are eligible to be nominated for assistance . The board members and volunteers are from both sides of the border .
I had the honor and pleasure of working with this great group of Drivers who graciously volunteer their time to help their fellow sisters and brothers of the highway .
It was a heart wrenching experience listening to the stories of these families and the struggles they are facing.
It’s time for Santa and his Elves to get busy working on the 2017 Truckers Christmas Group season. They can always use more elves. It is a voluntary effort that only pays you for your efforts in being able to help others. If you are interested in becoming a Truckers Christmas Group Elf. Send an email to Mark at mark@truckerschristmasgroup.org
Testimonial From December 2016 Family
As a single Dad of three, I wasn’t sure how I was going to get through Christmas 2016 or the months following. I wasn’t working at the time due to illness. Living by the grace of god and charity, it was the first time in my life I had to reach out for my family’s survival. Christmas however, was a luxury not affordable in my budgeting. I reached out to the Truckers Christmas Group for help and they reciprocated. The help I received was enough to give my young children a Christmas not otherwise possible. On Christmas morning no feeling compared to the happiness felt within my family opening and playing with new Christmas toys and 6 am chocolates. What a great cause for professional drivers in Canada and USA to help in times of need. I am forever grateful knowing and having my trucking family there for me.????

St. Lawrence College Employment Service is a free service to both employers and job seekers. We are open to the public, and funded by Employment Ontario. Our services
are available to Employers and Job Seekers, who may require some assistance in the hiring and employment process; this can provide substantial time and financial savings for the Company or Individual. Should you have any current, or anticipated hiring needs
our team would be more than happy to provide assistance. In my role as Employer Liaison, I can help to promote and advertise Employer opportunities, find and pre-screen applicants, help plan job fairs that are tailored to your company, or assist with career
fairs at larger events with multiple employers. We can also provide interview and meeting space, if required. All of the services we offer are at no cost to you! Additionally, if you choose to hire a candidate that is registered with our office, we can help
you gain access and information about our wage subsidy programs, and grants which can offset the cost of hiring.
If you have any questions about our services, and how I might be of assistance to you I would be more than happy to connect with you further at your convenience.
Thanks,
Steven Csanyi
