Truckin' to Pass Christian: Handicapped driver joins effort for hurricane relief
Today, Cascio owns a trucking company, based in South Salem, N.Y., with a distribution center in Danbury - Taconic Transfer Inc. He has used his trucks to meet the needs of many people over the years.
The year 1992 found him donating two drivers and trucks to haul medical supplies for the World Committee for the U.N. Decade of Disabled Persons. They picked up medical supplies from hospitals throughout Connecticut and delivered them to New York airports for flights to Russia.
After the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, AmeriCares contacted Cascio. Again, he donated drivers and trucks to bring supplies from Connecticut to Ground Zero in New York City.
