Recognizing the urgent need for aid in hard-to-reach areas, Landmaster's team quickly mobilized to prepare and deliver the UTVs. Thanks to the exceptionally fast work of the Landmaster team, the vehicles were delivered to the Boone, NC airport over the weekend.

Jeremy Gayed, CEO of Landmaster, expressed his gratitude for the team's commitment, stating:
"Thanks to the exceptionally fast work of the Landmaster team willing to come in and work on a Saturday when the plant is closed, four of our UTVs were able to make it safely to the airport in Boone, NC. It's a joy and an honor to work alongside people who take such joy in helping others."

The UTVs were transported to Boone via a National Guard Chinook helicopter and will be sent to remote areas that remain inaccessible due to the destruction. These vehicles will provide essential transportation for relief teams working to restore access and deliver aid to communities in need.

By supporting Samaritan's Purse in these efforts, Landmaster hopes to make a tangible difference in the recovery of North Carolina's hardest-hit areas.
