Resilience and community support after Michigan tornado
When a tornado struck our FedEx facility in Kalamazoo, Michigan, our team acted quickly to ensure everyone's safety and restored operations by the next day, delivering more than 7,000 medical and perishable packages on time. In addition to restoring our facility, team members provided a grant to Twelve Baskets, a nonprofit providing groceries, clothing, and household items for the community in need.
Thanks to the entire team for your dedication, drive, and heart - and for putting our core values, safety above all and take care of one another, first and foremost in all that you do.
