DENVER – January 7, 2025 – OmniTRAX, a comprehensive supply chain, industrial development, and logistics solutions partner, and the rail affiliate of The Broe Group, has completed its 2025 Good Neighbor Giving Program. The annual community outreach program that donates hundreds of thousands of dollars each year included contributions to 52 local non-profits in 32 markets, providing funding for the essential community services that serve millions of local neighbors across the OmniTRAX rail network.
“The OmniTRAX Good Neighbor Program provides vital funding to help our local non-profit partners serve our neighbors in need,” said OmniTRAX CEO Colby Tanner. “Through these local donations and our team’s volunteer service, we are committed to strengthening the communities that we all call home.”
The annual Good Neighbor contributions culminate the year-long commitment on behalf of OmniTRAX, its affiliate railroads, and corresponding employees to the local communities served throughout the OmniTRAX rail network. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are distributed each year to local non-profits spanning from California to Colorado, Illinois to Ohio, and New Jersey to Florida, with the guidance of our local teams and community leaders. 2025 local community recipients included food banks, fire departments, youth and family services, and local United Way chapters.

Each year, OmniTRAX and its affiliates collaborate with local officials in the communities they serve to identify community needs and the corresponding local non-profits equipped to provide those services. These communities from coast-to-coast are home to OmniTRAX teammates, neighbors, and partners. Through annual contributions of volunteer hours and resources, OmniTRAX Good Neighbor Program strives to model the spirit of being a good civic partner and good neighbor.
