Community Heroes Step Up for Hurricane Relief
Pennsylvania School Bus and Van Drivers Rally to Support Residents Impacted by Hurricane Helene.
Krise Transportation, based in Punxsutawney, Pa., is stepping up to offer aid to those affected by Hurricane Helene. As a prominent partner of American Student Transportation Partners (ASTP), they prioritize safe, reliable student transport throughout Pennsylvania and aim to address urgent needs in local communities when disaster strikes.
Established in 2021, ASTP is committed to revolutionizing student transportation with a focus on customer care, incorporation of new technologies, and a strong emphasis on a people-first philosophy. At Krise Transportation, team members are affectionately known as "HEROES", reflecting their dedication to fostering community well-being through effective service.
Recognizing the devastating repercussions of Hurricane Helene on Western North Carolina, the team mobilized quickly to make a positive impact. They organized an impressive response, leveraging their 32 school bus terminals across Pennsylvania to collect crucial supplies for those in dire need. Employees, families, and local communities answered the call by donating an abundance of necessary items such as water, non-perishable food, and blankets.
The response was overwhelming; two semi-trucks filled with supplies are set for delivery to the Asheville Buncombe Community Christian Ministry (ABCCM). This compassionate initiative is a testament to the dedication of Krise Transportation to helping their neighbors in crisis.
Mike Massaro, President of Krise Transportation, expressed pride in his team’s actions: "Krise Transportation bus and van drivers are at the core of our operations. This dedicated team has made a significant impact in their communities throughout Pennsylvania. By reaching across state lines to support those in need, we demonstrate that compassion knows no boundaries. Together, we can truly make a difference."
