OMAHA, Neb. - BAT Logistics, provider of 3rd Party Logistics and Transportation solutions, is giving back to the community through the Salvation Army. We have increased our giving every year and one of the ways we give back is to adopt families that would otherwise not have a Christmas with presents.
This year, BAT has adopted 11 families ranging from two to seven family members. We provide gifts from a wish list for the children and we also provide a gift card to a local grocery store to buy their Christmas dinner for the whole family.
It is just a small token to share the blessings we at BAT have received throughout the year. This is BAT's third year adopting families during the Christmas holiday, and double the amount of families it has adopted from last year.
About Adopt-A-Family
This year, more than 2,300 families qualified for assistance from the Adopt-A-Family program. Since the program began 11 years ago, more than 16,000 families have been adopted by local donors.
Families range in size from one to five children and, if adopted, will receive Christmas dinner and toys for the children to open Christmas morning.
Those interested in adopting a family may call The Salvation Army Adopt-A-Family at 402-474-6263.

Shippers Have More Protection With Freight Brokers & 3PL Providers
OMAHA, Neb.-- July 2, 2011 - Shippers should be aware of the Anti-Indemnity Laws that may have already been passed in their own state.
Shippers require their transportation providers to hold them harmless from any and all losses regardless of who's at fault. The passing of the Anti-indemnity Law means indemnity agreements in motor carrier contracts are against state public policy and, therefore, void. That puts the balance of liability back to shippers doing business with motor carriers directly.
However, the Anti-Indemnity Law does not pertain to shippers contracting with 3pls/freight brokers. This could mean more business for 3pls/freight brokers, but at how much risk to themselves?
