ALAN aids Hurricane Milton recovery efforts

Kathy Fulton, executive director of American Logistics Aid Network, begins her day at 5 a.m. by checking the latest weather updates and reviewing requests that have come in overnight. Her team works tirelessly to connect nonprofit organizations with logistics services providers willing to donate time to help those affected by natural disasters. The current focus is on Hurricane Milton, which has added to the already long list of disasters ALAN has been monitoring.
ALAN serves as a middleman between nonprofits and the private supply chain sector, ensuring that aid is delivered efficiently and tailored to specific needs. The team is actively coordinating efforts to transport essential supplies to areas impacted by the recent hurricanes. Despite the challenges, ALAN remains dedicated to facilitating collaboration between organizations and businesses to support disaster recovery.
As misinformation continues to spread during this hurricane season, ALAN works diligently to gather accurate information on the ground and address both human and business needs. The team’s goal is to enable businesses to resume operations quickly to alleviate the burden on government agencies. Despite the personal toll this work takes, Fulton and her team remain focused on supporting communities in need.
