Let's Put the Brakes on Breast Cancer - Part 2.

Welcome back to our blog series! In our previous post, we introduced you to Honest Wrenches’ remarkable partnership with Brakes for Breasts—a partnership driven by our commitment to making a difference. Today, let’s delve even deeper into the essence of Brakes for Breasts and explore the extraordinary mission supported by more than 100 independent auto repair shops across the United States.

Empowering Change: The Heart of Brakes for Breasts

Brakes for Breasts is an extraordinary nationwide initiative that transcends geographical boundaries. Over 100 independent auto repair shops have come together, forming a powerful alliance in the fight against breast cancer. Beyond the crucial aspect of raising awareness, this campaign is an engine for funding research aimed at finding a cure for this devastating disease.

Uniting Forces: Honest Wrenches and TechNet Professional

Our partnership with TechNet Professional is a testament to our dedication to meaningful change. Together, we bring you an incredible opportunity: Free Brake Pads. This offering ensures that when you need brake replacement, you receive the brake pads at no charge. Your only expense is related to any additional components required, like brake rotors, and the associated labor.

The Promise of a Breast Cancer Prevention Vaccine

Dr. Vincent Tuohy and his dedicated team at the Cleveland Clinic have made remarkable progress. They have successfully tested a Breast Cancer Prevention Vaccine in his lab and are working tirelessly to take it to human trials. Imagine a world where a vaccine eliminates the tragedy of facing breast cancer, especially the most lethal form—triple-negative breast cancer, which currently lacks effective treatment.

More Than 100 Independent Auto Repair Shops Unite for a Cure

More than 100 independent auto repair shops from across the United States are rallying behind Brakes for Breasts. They share our vision of a world free from the fear of breast cancer and are actively supporting Dr. Vincent Tuohy and his team at the Cleveland Clinic. Last year, we raised over $2,000 alone–combined with all of the other autoshops around the country, imagine how much progress we can make when we work together towards a cure.

Your Support Matters

Our collective goal is to support Dr. Tuohy’s research and create a world where your daughters and granddaughters will never have to worry about the tragedy of breast cancer. Currently, the funding Dr. Tuohy has received covers FDA approvals and clinical trials. Your donations go directly to research efforts, which include expanding the vaccine’s potential to address other forms of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and potentially numerous other diseases. This is groundbreaking, and your contribution can make a significant difference.

Putting the Brakes on Breast Cancer

For every brake service performed at one of our shops, our customers will receive their brake pads for free and only pay for labor and other necessary parts. The best part? We will donate 10% of that brake service to The Cleveland Clinic Breast Cancer Vaccine Research Fund. We hope you’ll join us as we fight the battle against breast cancer. Come visit us at either of our Honest Wrenches locations and help us put the Brakes on Breast Cancer! When you choose Honest Wrenches for brake servicing, you’re not only ensuring your vehicle’s safety but also contributing to a cause that has touched us all in one way or another. Let’s drive this change forward together!
