The Women In Trucking Association (WIT) has announced that WM has continued its Gold Level partnership. The continuation of this partnership supports the association’s mission to encourage women’s employment in the trucking industry, promote their accomplishments, and minimize the obstacles they face.
As a Gold Level partner since 2020, WM has sponsored the Accelerate! Conference & Expo at various levels and actively participates in the association. Domenica Farmer, area vice president, serves on the WIT board of directors.
“WM is pleased to renew our Gold Level membership with Women In Trucking,” said Farmer. “Over the past five years, we continue to find ways to work together to promote women in this specialized industry. I look forward to the coming year and empowering progress together.”
“We’re looking forward to our continued partnership with an innovative industry leader like WM,” said Jennifer Hedrick, CAE, president and CEO of WIT. “Their dedication to fostering an inclusive culture that honors diversity in all its forms positions them as a vital resource to WIT and its mission.”
Founded in 2007, the Women In Trucking Association is a resource for more than 8,000 corporate and individual members located in the United States, Canada and Mexico, as well as Japan, Australia, Sweden, South Africa and New Zealand. Recent accomplishments include: releasing the 2024-25 WIT Index, the industry barometer to regularly benchmark and measure the percentage of women who make up critical roles in transportation, which had approximately 350 company participants; hosting 7,400 participants in the WITney® Educational Trailer throughout 40 events in 26 states; honoring 200-plus leaders in transportation through several recognition programs; and more than 2,000 registered attendees at the 2024 Accelerate!
