    United Cargo’s September of Service concluded with two great events! 🎉 First, our dedicated Cargo team assembled at Willis Tower to put together 200 Kynd Kits for Unhoused Migrant Youth, showcasing our commitment to community service. 📦🤗 Closing the month out, United Cargo’s senior leadership team and customers engaged in “Seeding the Future,” 🌱 a sustainability initiative for Hawaii’s native plant life and reforestation. Together, we planted trees and fostered discussions on environmental stewardship. 🌳🏔️ A heartfelt thank you to all employees, vendors and customers who took part in these initiatives – your involvement is what truly makes a difference! #UnitedCargo #CommunityService #Teamwork #Sustainability #MakingADifference

    United Cargo's Canadian crew rocked the September of Service, teaming up with Daily Bread Food Bank to squash food insecurity! 🥕 We sorted a mountain of 2,828 lbs of carrots—enough to feed 257 people for three days. Big cheers to username_1 for the closest carrot guess! Together, we’re showing that community spirit and teamwork lead to amazing results. "The team that supports Canada may be small in number, but we knew by working together we could massively amplify our impact," said Hannah Roque. "The importance of September 11th and the September of Service resonates so strongly within the United Culture. We wanted to bring a small piece of that deep-routed community service mindset north of the border, showing that good really does lead the way."  #UnitedCulture #FoodHeroes #DailyBreadFoodBank 🧡✈️

    The ORD United Cargo Team rolled up their sleeves and dove into service with heart and muscle! 💪🏠 We revisited our friends at Habitat for Humanity, where we previously helped a deserving family prepare their future home. This time, we tackled Habitat Restore in Addison, IL, assembling, loading, and sprucing up furniture to support affordable housing. Our team’s efforts earned high praise, and we’re already gearing up for our next volunteer adventure in November. United Cargo is proud to make a difference, one piece of furniture at a time! #UnitedCargoCares #HabitatForHumanity #ServiceWithASmile #CommunityBuilding

    We’re thrilled to share that United Cargo has expanded its wings with the opening of a new cargo station in the “Garden City of the Caribbean,” Georgetown, Guyana! 🌿✈️ Nestled on South America’s North Atlantic coast, Georgetown is not only Guyana’s capital but also a hub of retail, administration, and financial services, contributing significantly to the country’s GDP. Our new freight facility at Cheddi Jagan International Airport (GEO) is now ready to connect you to the world from Houston (IAH) aboard our Boeing 737 MAX 8, flying four times a week (M/T/Th/Sat). While currently an import-only location, GEO accepts a variety of our products including GEN, EXP, QPK, UA Premium, and TrustUA, with plans to broaden our services in the future. Get ready to book your shipments into GEO and take advantage of our extensive South American network, including destinations like Bogota, Quito, Lima, and the upcoming Medellin route. United Cargo is committed to providing exceptional service and connecting you to over 160 nonstop destinations from Houston. Let’s grow together with United Cargo’s latest venture in Georgetown! 🌎💼 #UnitedCargo #NewBeginnings #GeorgetownGuyana #CargoConnectivity #TradeExpansion https://lnkd.in/gYXkjcBi
