Or that every 8 minutes, 1 person under the age of 40 is diagnosed with cancer?

When you consider the fact that 50% of men and 33% of women will be diagnosed with cancer, there is a 100% chance you or someone close to you will be affected.

So, what can you do about it?

You can help us put the BRAKES on cancer.

Throughout the month of October, Christian Brothers Automotive Shawnee is teaming up with Cancer Action to put the brakes on cancer!

Cancer Action is a local non-profit organization providing tangible, practical services and emotional support to those facing cancer in the Kansas City metro area.

In honor of our new partnership, Christian Brothers Automotive Shawnee will donate 5% of all brake jobs performed October 1st through the 31st to Cancer Action.

If you’re not in need of brake service, you can also take the Cancer Action challenge! Simply count the number of times you hit the brakes from home to work, then donate that amount to the Cancer Action cause.

For example, if you hit the brakes 21 times between your house and the office, you could donate $21 to Cancer Action.

Cancer Action is an incredible organization who regularly teams up with other organizations, such as Susan G. Komen Kansas City. Considering an estimated 40,000 women will die from breast cancer this year in the US, this is a great partner to have!

Scott, Tammie and the entire Christian Brothers Automotive Shawnee team is ready to put the brakes on cancer! Join us in making a difference!
