Titan continues Flags Over Harvest campaign, raising $20,000 for Farm Rescue
DES MOINES, IA <June 13, 2024> — Titan International Inc. (Titan) is proud to announce the continuation of its fourth annual Flags Over Harvest campaign. Titan will once again be giving away free American flags for farmers to proudly display on their equipment during the harvest season. For every flag requested, Titan will donate $5 to Farm Rescue, a nonprofit organization dedicated to assisting farmers who have faced major illnesses, injuries or natural disasters.
Throughout the 2023 growing season, Farm Rescue provided essential assistance to 64 farm families across its 8-state service territory. Whether it was planting, haying, harvest or livestock feeding, Farm Rescue's dedicated volunteers were there to lend a helping hand. In June 2023, the organization reached a significant milestone by assisting its 1,000th farm family since its inception in 2006.
In February 2024, Farm Rescue announced the addition of Wisconsin to their growing list of service states. Operations will begin with harvest assistance as of July 1, 2024. Additional support to follow in 2025 and for many years to come. The organization is currently accepting assistance applications throughout its entire service territory, including Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin.
Farm Rescue has been the beneficiary of Titan's Flags Over Harvest campaign since 2021, and the partnership is on track to raise $20,000 in support of the organization's vital assistance operations. Titan has further supported Farm Rescue by outfitting their equipment with sponsored Goodyear Farm Tires since 2018. These high-quality tires power Farm Rescue's machinery, enabling them to efficiently complete their mission.
"We are immensely grateful for the generous support we have received from Titan International," said Tim Sullivan, Sr. Development Officer at Farm Rescue. "Their ongoing commitment has allowed us to serve dozens of farm families and rural communities throughout the region."
