The Missions
To help over-the-road semi-truck drivers and their families when an illness or injury has recently caused them to be out of work. Assistance may be in the form of direct payment to providers for household living expenses such as, rent/mortgage, utilities, vehicle payments, and insurance. The SCF provides all applicants with additional resources, as well as information on how to negotiate price reductions with medical providers and hospitals. We normally do not pay medical bills.
To provide free health and wellness programs for drivers in hopes of preventing some common medical illnesses seen in this population. These programs include diabetes prevention, smoking cessation, chronic disease management, at-home cancer screenings, and free flu, shingles and pneumonia vaccines.
