Veteran Carriers Host 4th Annual Trucking For A Cause to Benefit the TACP Foundation
Wednesday, May 10th, 2023
Veteran Carriers, a local trucking company owned by retired U.S. Air Force Tactical Air Control Party’s Cliff White and Rob Cooch will host their 4th Annual Trucking for Cause to benefit the Tactical Air Control Foundation (TACP) at Sapelo Hammocks on Friday, May 12th.
“TACP or Tactical Air Control Party is a small group in the Air Force with 1,500 members that align with the Army echelon. From conventional echelon to the Rangers and Special Forces, TACP is a division of the Air Force that calls in military strikes for the military. The TACP Foundation raises funds to give support to the families of fallen TACP’s. The funds raised will go towards buying a car at sixteen, college tuition and expenses and starting their adult life,” shares Event Coordinator Tabitha Guy. “$127,000 was raised at last year’s Trucking for A Cause,” adds Guy.
“We are honored to support Sue Faley, the mother of Jason Faley and Jason’s brother Brian. We see her memorialization efforts for Jason from assisting with veteran organizations like the American Legion, erecting flags and plaques in his honor and most recently, working with local officials and state officials to have a Pennsylvania State bridge dedicated in his honor. This event is dedicated to families like Jason Foley and for keeping his memory alive,” states Veteran Carriers’ co-partner and president Cliff White. “This is the coolest thing we get to do all year - give back to our community, our brothers. 100 percent of the net proceeds goes to the best guys you can ever meet,” adds White.
