Tim Annett, President and CEO of WorldWide Logistics (a long-time Logistics Plus partner), completed the Break The Cycle 200 (BTC200) bike ride. The BTC200 is a 200-mile bike ride through the state of Iowa that helps create awareness and raise funds to help those caught in the horrible reality of human trafficking. Each participant must raise a minimum of $500 before the journey, and Logistics Plus proudly donated to support Tim’s adventure.
Tim showed his appreciation to all of his donors in the email received below:
“I am so humbled by all of your prayers, love, and support during the Stop the Traffic 200 ride. It was not an easy day for me. I had a lot of pain in my lower neck and shoulder blade area at about mile 40. Of course, that was not going to slow us down! Had torrential rains after lunch for over an hour. Never ridden in horizontal rain and wind with a tailwind pushing us to 28 MPH on 2 lane roads! Some may consider that a little crazy; I called it a good cleansing!!! Anyways, your donations…I really don’t have the words other than to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Never in my life did I think we could generate $10,000 for such a wonderful cause. Know this; your contributions are going to help some kids that currently have a miserable life. Hopefully, with God’s love and hope, we can find them all and give them a second chance. You guys are the best, and I’m so thankful to have you in my life. God bless!!”
Logistics Plus would like to send a huge congratulations to Tim! Photos from the ride can be seen below.
What is Break The Cycle 200? Break The Cycle 200 (BTC 200) uses two hundred-mile bike rides, run relays, and other endurance events to create awareness and raise funds to help those caught in the horrible reality of human trafficking in the U.S. and around the World. The problem is global with 40+ mil entrapped in modern forms of slavery, including sex slavery. In the US, a child is exploited for sex trafficking every 2 min (US Department of Justice). It’s around the world and in our backyard. Our participants are signing up to join the fight against modern slavery by giving voice to the issue and raising funds that help rescue and restore real victims in the US and worldwide.
June 28 is the day to recognize and appreciate the importance of the Logistics Industry.
ERIE, PA (June 28, 2021) – Logistics Plus Inc. (LP), a leading worldwide provider of transportation, logistics, and supply chain solutions, invites you to join the entire logistics industry in celebrating the third annual National Logistics Day to recognize and appreciate the importance that logistics plays in our national and global economies.
It is estimated that the transportation and warehousing segment in the U.S. alone accounts for over 5.5 million jobs and that all logistics activities account for nearly 8% of everything we make and sell. The third-party logistics segment alone represents a $200 billion industry and employs more than 126,000 men and women with a payroll exceeding $7.5 billion annually.
The first National Logistics Day was established on June 28, 2019, by Logistics Plus and registered with the National Day Calendar. Numerous city, county, and state institutions have officially endorsed it, and the U.S. House of Representatives issued a formal Congressional Record honoring June 28 as a National Logistics Day. Since last year, the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) – the definitive voice for the logistics industry – has been actively advancing National Logistics Day throughout the industry.
“We are extremely proud of our 25-year history in this industry and our TIA membership this past decade,” said Scott Frederick, Vice President, Marketing & LTL Carrier Relations for Logistics Plus. “Along with our 3PL industry peers, it’s rewarding to see the many awesome jobs we create for our employees and the interesting supply chain challenges we solve for our customers. Logistics is important and deserving of its own day of celebration.”
“The COVID-19 pandemic put our industry and our members in the spotlight,” said Anne Reinke, TIA President & CEO. “TIA Members have worked tirelessly juggling and addressing the huge demand on household goods and filling gaps in both shipper and carrier capacity wherever they could. Now that the logistics industry is better known, it is incumbent upon all of us, but most especially TIA, to make it better understood by raising our members’ profiles, herald their great works, and educate the public about all that the logistics industry does – and National Logistics Day is the perfect forum to do so.”
