Truckload freight brokerage firm Total Quality Logistics is saying thank you to truck drivers with its new Drivers Dreams program.

Drivers Dreams is like a make-a-wish program for truck drivers. Drivers can submit any dream, wish, or need they have. It might be a dream to take a long overdue family vacation. It might be a wish to go back to school. It might be assistance in paying bills. Any dream is acceptable.

A Dream Team made up of TQL employees will choose the 10 most compelling submissions and post them on www.DriversDreams.com during National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, Sept. 16-22. Drivers will cast their vote for the wish they feel is most worthy. The dream or dreams with the most votes win. A total of $10,000 will be granted to make dreams come true.

For every dream submitted and every vote cast, TQL will donate $1 to the St. Christopher Truckers Development & Relief Fund, a charity that assists truck drivers and their families. TQL will donate up to $25,000 to SCF.

The Drivers Dreams program began Monday, Aug. 27. Dream submissions will be accepted through 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Saturday, Sept. 22, on their website. On Sunday, Sept. 16, the 10 most compelling dreams will be posted online and visitors to the site will vote on the wishes they feel are most worthy. The winning dream will be announced on Tuesday, Sept. 25.

Winners have been announced here.
