September 21 – 28, 2019
To celebrate dnata’s 60th anniversary, this September, all dnata team members across the world will be participating in a global initiative to support local causes: dnata USA has partnered with United Way to pledge walking/running the distance from New York to Los Angeles (2,800 miles) from September 21 to September 28, 2019 and raising $33,000 along the way. All proceeds benefit United Way – a charity that focuses on the health, education, and financial stability of communities across the world – improving lives and advancing the common good.
