Trucker Spotlight




BigRigCentral.com's Trucker Spotlight is the place we enjoy putting the stories of truckers, organizations and individuals in the spotlight to share their stories of helping others with our website visitors from around the world.

Truckers continuously show their kindness by helping out many different people every day. Whether from a third-party logistics company or a self-employed truck driving service, these people continue to show why it's important to be good to your fellow man.

We would like to hear from you.

If you also know of an organization or individual doing good things to help folks and would like to see their story in our Trucker Spotlight, we would love to share their stories with our visitors.

Please use our Contact Us form to send us their story.

Table Talk Ministries - Bill HutsonWe heard about Bill Hutson and the organization he established to help folks unable to make much needed repairs to their homes.

After getting off the road hauling loads all week, Bill helping people in need since 2002 deserves to be put in our Spot Light.

Bill is a Trucker making a difference in the lives of now over 200 people who have been helped by Table Talk Ministries. For the record, most of the money used for the free home repairs comes from the pocket of Bill as he keeps rolling ahead to help the next person in need.

Drum Hike - A Soldier's Hike For Heroes  

7000 Miles Across America For Military Families In Need


Iraqi War Veteran, SPC Troy Yocum, deserves to be in the Trucker Spotlight.

First for his service to help protect our country then for highlighting the dire conditions many present military families and veterans are facing as America fights for survival.

Banging his drum as he walks America, Troy is raising awareness and sounding the cause for $5 million dollars to help military families in need.

One important thought to keep in mind is that many male and female soldiers are driving the big rigs being used to win the war.

Donations can be made at activeheroes.org

Money raised is being distributed to military familes through The Wish Upon A Hero Foundation

1. The organization, the group of volunteer truckers and layover teams all deserve to be recognized for bringing joy to hundreds of new pet owners and for especially bringing joy to animals most often destined to be destroyed.

2. We wanted our visitors to be aware of an organization that is set up to help transport animals across the state or country to their new owners. You may want to become a volunteer or know of someone who needs this help to adopt a pet.
