recent addition to the company's charity recipients, Folds of
Honor, which provides life-changing scholarships to spouses and
children of fallen or disabled U.S. military service members and
first responders.
“It is always inspiring to watch the outstanding generosity of
our people who embody the ATSG culture of working together and
supporting others," said Rich Corrado, president and chief
executive officer of ATSG. “In 2022, our employees recognized needs
in the communities where we live and work, not only by giving back
financially but also by donating their time and energy to causes
that are important to them."
ATSG focuses on creating positive change by supporting programs
in education, youth development, veterans support, food security,
and homelessness. In addition to financial help, employees of ATSG
companies volunteer countless hours in service to communities
across their network, such as delivering truckloads of critical
supplies for flood victims in Kentucky, staffing a children’s
winter coat drive and the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots program,
