Nancy and I stepped out on faith almost 25 years ago to start our company, Four Star Freightliner. It was then we made an important commitment to ourselves, our employees and our community. We proudly display this commitment as part of our mission statement in all seven Four Star locatios. In part it reads:

 “We will be active and support the communities in which we live and serve, to be good stewards and leaders in each community we are located. To that end, we will assist, support and promote local and national organizations and associations that are engaged in like-minded causes and activities.”

Providing support to those in need is at the root of both our family and company values. Therefore, we have decided to partner with the Alabama Kidney Foundation (AKF)  to raise essential funds for those suffering from kidney disease.

The AKF supports our neighbors with kidney disease through programs providing financial assistance, daily living needs, transportation assistance, education, and support services.  The AKF is Alabama’s only state-based organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for Alabama’s kidney patients.   

Nancy and I are excited to meet you at the Kidney Walk on Saturday, May 4 at the Riverwalk Stadium in downtown Montgomery. Come to show your support!

Enclosed is information on sponsorship benefits.  If you would like additional information contact Becki Connally, Director of Corporate & Community Partnerships, 251-455-2123 becki@alkidney.org or Shannon Morrell, Middle Alabama Regional Director, (334) 430-8716 - shannon@alkidney.org.

We are all linked to one another and connected within our community. Thank you for your consideration to help us and the AKF build new roads toward better support and health in Central Alabama through your gift!

Sincerely, 

Jerry & Nancy Kocan
