Fleet Advantage announced it has been named a 2026 Purpose Award recipient by the Transportation Marketing and Sales Association (TMSA). The company was recognized during the Champions of Impact 2026: TMSA Purpose Award Virtual Ceremony on April 23. This marks the second time Fleet Advantage has received this honor, having previously been recognized in 2023.
TMSA’s Purpose Award honors distinguished companies that go above and beyond their regular duties by making a meaningful impact on their communities and the planet. Fleet Advantage was recognized for its continued leadership in community engagement through its Kids Around The Corner Foundation (KATC), which reflects the company’s core values of responsibility, integrity, and long-term stewardship within the transportation industry.
Over the past 18 months, Fleet Advantage has expanded the reach and effectiveness of KATC by strengthening nonprofit partnerships, increasing employee engagement, and enhancing programs focused on education, empowerment, and essential needs. The company’s philanthropic efforts are closely aligned with its business mission, leveraging its leadership in transportation to drive meaningful, lasting change in the communities where its employees and clients live and work.
In 2025 alone, KATC contributed more than $307,000 to 45 nonprofit organizations, including 16 new partnerships, surpassing $1 million in lifetime giving. Key initiatives included distributing 1,000 backpacks to students across Broward County, expanding financial literacy programs into underserved communities, hosting youth enrichment events, and supporting families through seasonal giving campaigns. Fleet Advantage also extended its impact globally by funding a disaster relief container delivering essential supplies to families in Jamaica and surrounding areas following Hurricane Melissa.
Employee engagement remained a cornerstone of the company’s community efforts, with nine in-person volunteer events held throughout 2025. These initiatives included large-scale care kit distributions, holiday giving programs, and matched donation campaigns; helping to foster a culture of purpose and participation across the organization.
Judges of the award noted Fleet Advantage’s “sustained philanthropy, measurable outcomes, and employee engagement,” as well as its effective use of storytelling, media outreach, and strategic partnerships to amplify its impact.
“Through Kids Around The Corner, giving back is not just an initiative; it’s a core part of who we are as a company,” said Elizabeth Gomez, Director of Marketing and Community Outreach for Fleet Advantage. “We are honored to be recognized by TMSA once again and proud of the meaningful difference our employees, partners, and clients continue to make in the communities we serve.”
