Shades of Pink

Shades of Pink: A Wild Time at the Zoo

May 21

No breast cancer patient should have to choose between paying the mortgage or life-saving medical treatment. Every year, thousands of Metro Detroit residents are faced with this very choice.

In fact, almost 1000 Metro Detroit women will have to declare bankruptcy due to the financial burden of their breast cancer treatment!

This is why the LMA finds it so important to support the Shades of Pink Foundation by sponsoring their annual fundraiser – A Wild Time at the Zoo.

We will provide your dealership with digital / social assets to promote your support of Shades of Pink.

If you would like to get your dealership further involved, you can create your own dealership team to participate in the walk, or donate directly to SOPF.
