When we experience a natural or man-made disaster in our country, there's a tremendous outpouring of generosity, but it can be hard to channel this good will effectively. ALAN helps to answer one of the most common questions in times of crisis: How can I help?

ALAN provides a primary point of contact for the U.S. logistics industry's donation activity and information. We help to:

• Ensure that donation needs are made visible to the logistics industry
• Leverage members' supply chain management knowledge and resources
• Create an efficient process for providing the right goods and services in the right quantity, at the right location, at the right time

Our convenient and easy-to-use web portal gives companies an efficient way to view relief needs and determine if their resources are needed in times of crisis. They also can determine the contribution level and recipients best suited to their charitable giving goals and the products, services and expertise they have available.

When you see ALAN at work, you'll see the power of a team of caring and committed individuals coming together to make a difference..
