Today Gretchen Seth and Julie Slomski (along with Laura Schaaf of the Barber Center) volunteered to sort and pack donations for Erie for Ukraine. Gretchen provided a first-hand account of the experience, along with the photos below.
“Once again, the support of ordinary people has been incredible! Someone dropped off four huge pallets of hand sanitizer wipes. One couple drove a packed Uhaul and SUV from Bradford, and they plan to do it again in two weeks.
We sorted and packed dozens of cartons of personal care items, medical supplies, food, and clothing. We probably built at least eight pallets, all at least 6’ high.
There was a steady stream of people dropping off items all afternoon.
As an added bonus, a Ukrainian lady brought eight loaves of paska fresh from the oven, which she served with jam and glasses of milk!
They are looking for volunteers for the next two Saturdays, so I hope we can enlist some Logistics Plus employees to join us.”

Last night, Logistics Plus hosted a fundraiser at The BrewErie at Union Station. It was a fun night filled with appetizers, brews, games, and giveaways (and a few Jell-O shots ?). By the end, we helped raise another $2,159 for Ukraine relief efforts?? (and we sold out all the Jell-O shots … thanks Yuriy)! Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed! https://lpukrainerelief.com/

If you work in the logistics industry, you know how busy and chaotic it can be. This is no different for the Logistics Plus Chicago team. Over the past few months, the team has been managing air charters, massive roll-out projects, and new fulfillment opportunities (on top of all the traditional warehousing work they handle).
Over the weekend, the team finally got together for a long-overdue Christmas dinner (only three months late 🙂 ). Logistics Plus Midwest Manager Christian Marz reflected on what a crazy journey the past few years have been. “It was great to get the team together in a non-work setting for a change. This celebration was well-deserved for everyone. It’s been a crazy couple of years, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.”
The Chicago team went from having five full-time employees in 2020 to sixteen full-time employees right now. That doesn’t include the large number of permanent and part-time warehouse workers who work for Logistics Plus in Chicago.
