The devastating fires sweeping through Southern California have left countless families displaced and communities in dire need of help. The is stepping up to provide critical logistics support during this challenging time鈥攁nd there are meaningful ways the Women In Trucking (WIT) community can contribute to the effort.

What鈥檚 Happening on the Ground

ALAN is actively working with non-profit partners to address the logistical challenges of fire relief. While generous donations of supplies have poured into affected areas, these contributions require sorting, warehousing, and transportation鈥攕ervices many local organizations aren鈥檛 equipped to manage on their own.

In response, ALAN is:

• Providing just-in-time logistics guidance to relief organizations.
• Hosting logistics coordination calls for non-profits. Join them for their next logistics call on Monday, January 13 at 3:30pm Eastern for non-profit organizations.
• Sharing infrastructure updates on road closures, power outages, and curfews through its Disaster Microsite and Supply Chain Intelligence Center.
