Washington – Today, the American Trucking Associations’ Trucking Cares Foundation announced that Scopelitis, Garvin, Light, Hanson & Feary, has committed to becoming the Foundation’s 11th member of the TCF Founders Club.

“Scopelitis has been proud to serve the trucking industry for decades, and we are honored to partner with ATA’s Trucking Cares Foundation and their commitment to help the trucking industry serve those who are most in need across the country,” said Scopelitis President and Managing Partner Gregory Feary. “TCF is already doing great work marshaling the industry’s considerable resources to help disaster victims and more, and we are pleased to be among the first to commit to supporting the work of Trucking Cares for years to come.”

The Founders Club is a special class of donors comprised of individuals and corporations that have committed to a $100,000 contribution over a 10-year period. Founders Club members will receive special recognition across Trucking Cares Foundation programs for their early and generous commitments to making our mission a reality.
