Breast Cancer Awareness Mouth is here, and that means that there will be plenty of promotions and events spreading awareness for the condition, as well as the brave individuals battling it.
It also means that there will be plenty of pink clothing and accessories being worn, showing off the movement's signature color.
While most people will be rocking pink ribbons, pink bandanas, and maybe a pink shirt or two, the police of Salem, Oregon decided to color an entire vehicle pink!
To show their support, the department deputed a bright pink police cruiser.
"We are honored to roll out a pink patrol vehicle on October 1," Deputy Chief Steve Bellshaw explained to flashalert.net. "We want to show our support for all survivors and the cause of curing breast cancer."
It will be assigned for daily patrols and will be available to view at events through the month of October.
The department partakes in plenty of other community-minded promotions including the D.A.R.E. program.
They also organize gift donations for the holidays as well as other holiday events.
The pink vehicle will be a great and mobile way to spread awareness about breast cancer as well as spread comfort and condolences for family members affected.
"As an agency, one of our core values is compassion, and we hope that when survivors and their families see the patrol car, they'll know the Salem Police family is supportive and compassionate of their experience with breast cancer and other devastating illnesses," stated Bellshaw.
Though the car definitely has plenty of pizzazz, there are other ways for those who care to spread the word. You can visit National Breast Cancer Foundation’s website to learn more about it as well as ways you can help.
