Dear (INSERT NAME OF DIRECTOR OR NAME OF HAULING BUSINESS),

I am one of your customers and I am writing to talk to you about breast cancer. This horrible disease infects over 190,000 and kills over 40,000 women and men each year. 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in her life.

(INSERT YOUR PERSONAL BREAST CANCER CONNECTION HERE)

(INSERT COMPANY NAME) needs to be a part of the fight against breast cancer, and I know how you can help! Offer Pink Carts. These pink rolling trash carts serve two purposes. The first is that for each cart you purchase, Cascade Cart Solutions will give $5 to either the American Cancer Society’s breast cancer awareness initiatives or the Canadian Cancer Society’s breast cancer research initiatives dependent on where the cart is purchased. Second, Pink Carts make an unmistakably bold statement about their owner’s passion for ending breast cancer. These carts catch your eye and they remind women to schedule regular exams so that they can find breast cancer early when they have the best chance of beating it through treatment. Pink Carts can help raise awareness and save lives in our community.

The Pink Cart is part of Cascade Cart Solutions’ commitment to fight for a cure. They are an industry leader in the design and manufacture of refuse containers, dumpsters, trash cans, recycling bins, waste carts, and more for solid waste and recycling collection—with more than 15 million products in the market through hundreds of waste haulers and municipalities across the country. But they’re more than a container company. They believe that business can and should be profitable, as well as socially responsible.

Please consider offering Pink Carts; in honor of all the mothers, sisters, wives, grandmothers and friend who have been impacted by breast cancer.
