Hyster donates walkie pallet truck to American Red Cross

Hyster Company has donated a walkie pallet truck to assist the American Red Cross in disaster relief efforts.

The truck is being used in the organization’s Atlanta, Ga., warehouse to move critical supplies supporting relief efforts of natural and man-made disasters.

“Hyster is pleased to support the outstanding humanitarian efforts of the American Red Cross,” said Joe Bugica, vice president of marketing for Hyster. “Given the organization’s geographic footprint, and the volume of goods moved through their relief facilities, the American Red Cross will benefit substantially from having a Hyster truck to help them operate efficiently on a day-to-day basis and in times of greater need.”

“This donation is an example of how collaborating with generous organization’s such as Hyster Company, makes our work possible,” said Michael Parks, CEO for the Northeast Ohio Region of the American Red Cross. “Our volunteers will greatly appreciate this equipment when they need to rapidly move relief supplies during times of disaster.”
