Disaster Relief Update: Teamsters Stand United in Times of Crisis

Fellow Allegiant Pilots,

The Teamsters are proud to announce that we have successfully distributed disaster relief funds to support families affected by Hurricane Helene — a devastating Category 4 storm that made landfall in Florida on September 26, 2024.

Hurricane Helene caused catastrophic damage across the region, resulting in an estimated $75 billion in destruction and tragically claiming 251 lives. In the face of such devastation, the strength and solidarity of our union have once again proven vital.

Through the Teamsters Disaster Relief Program, we were able to provide $180,000 in direct aid to Teamster families impacted by this disaster — families who found themselves suddenly surrounded by loss, uncertainty, and destruction.

This is a proud moment for our union. When our brothers and sisters are in need, we show up. Not just in words — but in action, with meaningful support when it matters most.

The Disaster Relief Program reflects the very core of what it means to be a Teamster: standing shoulder to shoulder, lifting one another up, and never leaving a member behind.

We will continue to strengthen these programs and ensure that whenever and wherever disaster strikes, the Teamsters will be there.

 

In Solidarity,

APA 2118 Communications Committee
