The Pink Cart is a product developed by Cascade Cart Solutions to support the American Cancer Society’s work to create a world with less breast cancer and more birthdays. The project took shape and became a reality because of Cascade Cart Solutions’ General Manager Jo-Anne Perkins. Read more about her own personal experience of her mother’s journey with breast cancer.

As a leader in the fight against breast cancer, the American Cancer Society is committed to saving lives and creating a world with less cancer and more birthdays. The Society is saving lives by helping people stay well, helping people get well, by finding cures, and by fighting back against cancer. The ACS has invested more than $388 million in breast cancer research grants since 1971—more than any other voluntary public health organization. Money raised goes to funding cutting-edge research in lifesaving treatments like Tamoxifen and Herceptin, free programs and services that improve the quality of life for cancer patients and their families, a 24-hour cancer hotline, free email mammogram reminders, and programs that match newly diagnosed breast cancer patients with survivors who can guide them through their journey.
