HICKORY, N.C., June 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Transportation Insight, North America's leading provider of supply chain management solutions, announces a new partnership that will support workforce development for children and youth in the Carolinas. Through a new multi-year collaboration with the Carolina Panthers, The Salvation Army Boys & Girls Clubs of North and South Carolina becomes presenting sponsor of the Carolina Panthers Kids Club and other promotional activities with the National Football League franchise.

"Underwriting this partnership was the right thing to do because the Salvation Army Boys & Girls Clubs of North and South Carolina helps so many underserved kids and their families in so many ways," said Transportation Insight Founder and Chairman Paul Thompson.
