Cecil Overbey, Senior Vice President of Strategic Development at Old Dominion Freight Line, appeared on FOX8's Day of Giving telethon in December 2025, where the company presented a $50,000 check to the Salvation Army. During the appearance, he noted Old Dominion's roughly 30-year partnership with the charity and described how the company's employees participate in supporting the campaign, including through community concerts. He encouraged viewers to contribute to the fundraising effort, describing the donation as seed money intended to inspire additional giving. In an April 2024 episode of the Cargo Shorts podcast, Overbey discussed the importance of maintaining brand value and focusing on service quality rather than competing on price. He stated that Old Dominion has aimed to be a premier transportation company rather than the largest, and he attributed the company's margin advantage over other publicly traded carriers to its value proposition of high-quality service. He also emphasized the importance of regular strategic evaluation and employee buy-in for long-term business success.
