Partnership promotes trucking careers for women
The Women in Trucking association (Wit) has announced that FedEx Freight has renewed its 'Gold Partnership', continuing a collaboration that highlights career paths for women in transport, recognises their achievements and addresses industry barriers. FedEx Freight has supported Wit for more than a decade, becoming a 'Gold Partner' in 2019 and serving as a 'Platinum Sponsor' of Wit's 'Accelerate!' conference and expo.
FedEx Freight managing director for district operations, Melissia Reeves, also serves on Wit’s board of directors. "Through our partnership with Wit, we’re proud to celebrate the achievements of women who are redefining what’s possible in transportation," Reeves said. Wit, founded in 2007, now has more than 8,000 members in North America. (ah)
