Nation Safe Drivers Raises Money in Unique Ways for Breast Cancer Awareness
Nation Safe Drivers, one of the largest suppliers of auto-related, supplemental products since 1962, has teamed up once again with the American Cancer Society to raise money for their Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Foundation fund.
Online, September 27, 2013 (Newswire.com) - This year, NSD has added some new fundraising efforts to their arsenal. Leading their team, as always, is Lauren Smith. Lauren is the Director of Compliance and Licensing at Nation Safe Drivers. This particular foundation hit close to home to Smith in 2008 when NSD lost one of their Senior Marketing Representatives and dear friend of Smith's, Kristie Eaton, to breast cancer. Each October, Nation Safe Drivers employees participate in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk for the Cure. This year, the event will be held on October 26th at Mizner Park in Boca Raton, FL.
In addition to the walk, NSD has come up with exciting fundraising efforts to raise money. Beginning in July, NSD had begun their daily candy sales, muffin sales on Friday mornings, and "Dress Down Days" where employees who pay $5 were allowed to enjoy "casual Friday" and wear jeans on a Wednesday.
On September 19th, in honor of Kristie Eaton's birthday, Nation Safe Drivers held their 7th Annual Bake Sale. NSD employees got to show off their baking skills for a great cause. Each year, Nation Safe Drivers raises more than $5,000 for breast cancer research with these events. This year, they are hoping to surpass their fundraising goal and to do so, they are adding a Mega Yard Sale on October 12th. NSD is looking for donations of new or gently used items such as tools, sports equipment, furniture, toys, electronics, clothes, and kitchen items.
