Andersen Donates Forklifts to Support Needs of American Red Cross

Andersen Material Handling was part of an initiative to support the needs of 10 American Red Cross warehouses across the United States. Two new 6,000 lbs. walkie pallet trucks with battery and charger packs were donated to American Red Cross locations in Lansing, Michigan and Toledo, Ohio. These walkie trucks are used to move and transport emergency supplies, water and other necessities for disaster relief efforts. The donation is valued at approximately $16,000.

“When the American Logistics Aid Network (ALAN), a network that supports logistics requests for unmet needs of relief organizations, reached out to obtain assistance for a number of our American Red Cross warehouses, Raymond and their participating dealerships was more than happy to see how they could help,” said Rosie Taravella, American Red Cross, Western and Central New York Regional Chief Executive Officer.

Andersen Material Handling is proud to go the extra mile to support the needs of non-profit charities and is dedicated to helping our local communities.
