Jericho Wholesale and Shell Join Forces for a Cause
Jericho Wholesale is proud to partner with Shell in the initiative Power Up for Pink Aid this October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This exciting campaign aims to assist underserved breast cancer patients and their families through vital financial support while raising awareness for the disease.
What is Power Up for Pink Aid?
This campaign will see 50 Shell gas stations across various locations participating by wrapping their fuel pumps in a vibrant pink hue. For every gallon of Shell V-Power sold, five cents will be donated directly to Pink Aid, an organization committed to providing crucial support and resources to those affected by breast cancer.
The Purpose Behind the Initiative
As a well-known national organization, Pink Aid focuses on offering compassionate support and critical emergency assistance to breast cancer patients. The visionary CEO of Pink Aid, Amy Katz, expressed her enthusiasm for the collaboration: "A breast cancer diagnosis is devastating not only emotionally but also financially. This campaign will significantly bolster our mission to aid those in need during such challenging times."
The Impact of Your Contributions
Through the funds raised from Power Up for Pink Aid, initiatives such as the Pink Purse program will be further supported. This program is designed to grant emergency financial resources to hundreds of underserved individuals grappling with breast cancer in the United States.
Encouraging Community Involvement
Adam Wolf, Principal at Jericho Wholesale, expressed his enthusiasm for the project, stating, “We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Pink Aid and bring attention to Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Our goal is to foster community engagement and provide meaningful support to families battling this illness.
