Maricopa Final Stop for Pink Heals Tour

Monday October 8, 2012

This Saturday October 13th the Maricopa Fire Department will welcome the Pink Heals Tour on their final stop of the 2012 campaign. The Pink Heals organization was founded in 2007 to help those battling ALL cancers, specifically women. The tour focuses on putting people and their battles before the causes.

Founded by former firefighter Dave Graybill, “The Pink Heals Tour and the “Cares Enough to Wear Pink” program is about our community, our family, our neighbors, and our leaders and how it will help bring us back together to focus on our own people now, rather than on promises that were never kept, opportunities that were lost, and things that might have been. Pink will heal as long as we do it in service to our women and what they mean to us in our communities, not just because they are sick or stricken with cancer. Because if we use illness as the sole motivation for action, once the sickness is gone, so is our cause for coming together.”


This year’s tour began July 27th in Sedona, AZ and made stops in New Mexico, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California, and Nevada.

The trucks and the men and women of the Pink Heals Organization will be on display at the Maricopa Fire Department administration office at 44624 W. Garvey Ave. Saturday morning from 9 a.m. to 12 noon.
