Fantasy Football is being used to raise funds for a major trucker relief organization.
Transfix, a leading freight technology provider, is once again holding its Freight Fantasy Football League. The second annual league is available to anyone working in freight and logistics.
As of today, contributions from 10 corporate sponsors, matched by Transfix, have brought the total to $26,200 for the St. Christopher's Truckers Relief Fund.
Year one was open to Transfix and its extended network. This year, registration is open to the whole freight industry. Rather than pitting one segment against another, the league is structured as a single collaborative effort, with corporate sponsors, players, and individual donors all feeding one pool that goes to the fund. Donations remain open through Super Bowl Sunday, and 100% of proceeds benefit St. Christopher's.
The league is hosted on Splash Sports, the same platform returning participants used last year. Registration remains open through the opening weekend of the NFL regular season, which kicks off Wednesday, Sept. 9, when the New England Patriots visit the defending champion Seattle Seahawks, giving late arrivals a chance to get in the game.
Donations are open to everyone, whether or not you field a fantasy team, and 100% of proceeds benefit the St. Christopher's Truckers Relief Fund. The fundraiser will accept donations through Super Bowl Sunday on Feb. 14, 2027.

"On behalf of the St. Christopher Truckers Relief Fund, we are grateful to Transfix for bringing this league back and opening it up to the entire industry," said Diane Hutsell, executive director and director of Philanthropy at the St. Christopher's Truckers Relief Fund. "Every dollar raised goes directly toward making sure professional drivers have support when illness or injury takes them off the road."
