We have grown so fast and accomplished so much in six years but yet we still need to get a little more help from the media about our program! <br />
We started out on tour yesterday and had a great stop in Sedona and Cottonwood. It was a nice showing of support, especially since my own State lags behind most of the others in support of the program. <br />
We are constantly reminding people that we are not a charity that asks for donations, we're an organization that has a program that inspires our tax based communities to fund raise for their people starting with all women and her family battling cancer and other health related issues. If your salary comes from your citizens through taxes, then you should be raising money for your citizens and directing all those dollars to either non-profits locally that keep 100% of the money at home, or creating foundations so people can access the funds to help offset costs associated with battling this disease!<br />
There was a time that you needed to pick a charity to support, in order to give you an advantage in fundraising. That time has come and gone and our program is proving that everyday. You use our brand and mission statement without guaranteeing a specific organization the money, you watch and see how many of your local groups come out and celebrate our selfless showing of love and trust and then direct the money accordingly. We are truly a brand by the people for the people, we have to start keeping our fundraising and volunteer dollars close to home. If your State and local communities control the money then immediate care will come to you! <br />

We are looking for leaders throughout the Country that are willing to put the people they serve ahead of themselves, leaders who represent a large part of the public who will inspire them to rally on behalf of our citizens and not large corporations when it comes to our volunteerism. If local businesses want us to shop at their stores then they will donate money locally to the very people that by their goods and services. </div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846789554285464265.post-47890473017999401242011-10-03T04:46:00.000-07:002011-10-03T04:46:30.497-07:00Eight thousand miles and dozens of Cities and we still have lots of work to do!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">As we make our way through Florida, I realize how much work we still need to do to get our voice heard. People still are taking our logo and attaching it to specific causes (Ribbons) and not the women of their communities. We have become a brand, with this brand we represent our women, our communities and most importantly <strong>LOVE!</strong> They are suppose to use this brand, fund raise and then share the money with local organizations that help our women battling cancer and other issues. If we wear her color not because she's sick but because she represents love, selflessness, family, home, then Pink will Really Heal!<br />
There is a reason we refer to our Country (United States) as SHE or HER, these two small words remind us that we need to protect and fight for our freedom it comes from our Love for our Country! The same goes for the women in our lives and around the World. Our brand is about people and it's not attached to a specific cause, if we rally around this brand and it's given for free, it will become the World's most powerful movement. know one can side step this calling to action because it's not in service to ourselves based on a personal struggle, with a specific disease. It is just doing what we where put here to do and that is put her first, stand together and take care of our families and communities. <br />

Komen has done a wonderful job in the area of research and marketing the pink ribbon to support breast cancer. We are just a little more profound in our approach and bring all people to take action in the fight for our women, families and communities. If our communities rally together for each other and not large organizations, then they control their destiny, large organizations will have to build infastructure close to these communities and thus create jobs, money raised stays home and then we can get <strong>CARE</strong> immediately!

We are so much more than just an awareness campaign and our program is what the Country needs in a time where we have a hard time trusting our Leaders locally and nationally as well. I feel the pain in communities that have tried to work hard and around them their leaders have sold their labor of love. <br />
You would think that all fundraising done in our local communities, Counties and States would make it a requirement that we keep all the money locally, but very few States require that the money stays in their own State. Millions of dollars could be saved to generate jobs, save jobs and even provide immediate care for their own people, if we just kept the money generated by our labor of love. <br />
We have asked for nothing and give everything away because love has always been free, if we are in service to others it's never about the money. I love what it means to be an American, I love what it means to be in service to others based on true volunteerism, this is what has made America what it is.<br />

We have firefighters in Iraq wearing our shirts and hopefully we will get some fire trucks painted pink and moving throughout the highways of Germany, Australia and the Philippines. These are the Countries that have showed interest in our program.<br />
What Cities and departments across the Country still need to realize is that we are creating a movement with our program. We are branding this movement with our tour every year by building trust and spreading the same message over and over again. Putting our women first, not because she is sick but because she should be first. Men who are men realize this, leaders who truly have God given leadership abilities realize this. So that is why you see so many of our pink fire trucks with our symbol and our mission statement being driven throughout the Country. If you see a pink fire truck on the road and they don't look just like our National tour trucks, they aren't a part of our program. </div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846789554285464265.post-62219585328278810962011-09-04T18:54:00.000-07:002011-09-05T11:09:05.770-07:00Nothing like a platform to explain our movement!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">We had a great stop in Hardin County thanks to Chief Steve New. He and his staff and firefighters along with the citizens of his community really put on a first class event. Now I know why in the old days Presidents went to small town USA to campaign, they truly know what community is all about and they still have that sense of serving others based on Love! <br />
I have to say the parade and the placement of "Our Ribbon of Hope" statue was perfect. It was right in front of the American Flag, with a stage just in front of that. It really brought out a lot of emotion for me and I really got the message out about our program. <br />

What if the number one brand in the World was a symbol of love based on what our women mean to us and it was given to each and every community so they in turn could create funds to help people pay their unforeseen costs due to cancer. If we are willing to drive thousands of miles around the country imprinting this brand for free and we are willing to give it to you so you can use this brand to raise money and help your own people, it becomes perfect! This is the next evolution in fundraising, this is a program that all our Politicians can wrap their arms around and limits their ability to turn the other cheek. It brings them back to the front lines and lets them stand right with us as we celebrate our own people. What if we create an immediate care program in each community based on fundraising year round by our people in each community. You cannot tell me it won't work, I was told fireman wearing t-shirts wouldn't work and now we have forty pink fire trucks in three different countries and thousands of fire departments wearing our symbol all around the Globe. We will be the largest fire department in the World in the next five years and it will be all based on love and what our women mean to us!

Juliet. We have just eaten at a retired firefighters house in a Del Webb development whose wife is currently battling breast cancer. We met Mike and Jeanne George at our last event at a YMCA on the far West side of Nashville and they invited us over for some home cooked food. It is amazing when you travel the Country doing what we're doing, you get to meet great people and the stories you hear are amazing.<br />
It's amazing how many drivers, firefighters, real men and women that want to help us get across the Country spreading our program to so many afflicted with cancer and to so many Cities that need to establish new programs for their people. <br />
When we pick Cities to visit we make contact with their local Fire Chief, Police Chief, Union Presidents, Mayor and if we have the time some of the Cancer organizations in each community. Very few tell us their not interested, very few of them once they see our press release and the videos of all the places that we've visited decline to celebrate the women, men and children that have taken the time to sign the trucks. Nashville's Fire Chief and it's City officials told us they where not interested, so that is how we ended up at the YMCA in Brentwood where we met a wonderful lady by the name of Nancy Brown. Nancy a survivor runs a non-profit program called ABC. They give survivors a free 16 week membership to the "Y", a trainer and offer all kinds of support information to help in recovery. Everything stays local and I think this is one of the many organizations we need to support as we inspire tax based organizations to raise money through our efforts. You can email Nancy at <a href="mailto:nbrown@ymcamidtn.org">nbrown@ymcamidtn.org</a> to get more information.

We had our best interview from Jeh Jeh on Fox 7 in Birmingham, who allowed us to really tell our story. This part of the Country we are making up a few stops as we go thanks to some help from friends on facebook. <br />
James Wessell and gang from Brindlee Mountain Fire Apparatus really took care of us when we stopped by to say hello. They are located just off highway 231 in Union Grove AL and they are the best and most honest used fire truck dealer in the Country. We have been driving around without air conditioning in Tonya for two years, thinking that we needed a new A/C unit. James and crew got to work and all it needed was to be charged and to have belts put on the Compressor. But all aside from getting a little help, what I look forward to is all the love and support they give you by just spending time with them. I hope our friendship with them will last a lifetime and I recommend that you go by and say hello and get to know these great people if your ever in the area. </div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846789554285464265.post-14604612812832874632011-08-28T09:15:00.000-07:002011-08-28T11:49:48.533-07:00New Challenges as we grow in support!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> I was needing a little inspiration to get me fired up for this years tour and had know idea it would come all the way from Washington DC. Since I had recently retired from the fire department in Glendale AZ, I had all the time in the World to go out on tour. <br />
You would probably think that was a good thing but my personality needs some conflict to get the juices flowing. I would always have to arrange my days off, either from vacation days of shift trades. My Fire Chief had given me a major insubordination and written me up for my efforts, so of course the Department didn't support me!<br />
We have toured about 70,000 miles and visited about 200 communities in the last four years to bring a program everywhere we visit to help these communities get out and support their own people. We just put our women first like we all should in their battle against cancer. People helping people, creating a brand based on Love and Selflessness. We started with the fire service and now have included every tax based group. <br />
The Firefighters across the Country have adopted our "Cares Enough to Wear Pink" program due to our work and started to raise money and keep all the proceeds for the very people they serve on a daily bases in their own community. Now that we've all united for the same goal, their National leaders are asking them to give the money to one National Organization. <br />
We are loosing jobs, we can't keep supporting large Corporate Charities with our Labor of Love. Money is being raised and leaving our communities with a large portion of it going to salaries outside our zip codes. I am not saying that these groups don't provide a great benefit to us, but let Corporate donors keep the Corporate Charities alive with large donations and let the people create a brand to help the people. What if Cities collectively did walks and runs, fundraisers year round that helped the very people in their communities with the burden due to cancer, focusing on our women (the glue to our communities.) What if all the local business's agreed to keep all their fundraising dollars local, we then in turn would spend our hard earned dollars purchasing their goods and services. We would rebuild our communities based on Love, we would create more jobs and relieve some of the stress due to unforeseen expenses due to cancer and other health related issues. <br />

All of us have to realize that our mothers love us unconditionally, that our women are the most selfless people on Earth. If we acknowledge this and always put her first we will feel the love and support from her in our own struggles with life and of course with our battle against cancer! Yes....Our program helps men as well as children, we just find the woman closest to a person and go through her for our calling of support, a grandmother, Mom, Wife, Sister, Aunt etc.....<br />

If we ask a Mayor, Governor, Senator or any other leader in a community to support breast cancer, they can reply that they support Diabetes. If we approach one of them and ask them to support our program, which supports all women based on Love and Respect, they have to get on board. Especially when the rally by the people and the money raised to help them, stays in their community!

Each community that adopts our program acknowledges that our women are the most important people in our lives, that they put her first in her battle against cancer. We must make sure that all the money raised from their efforts by adopting this program stays in that community!<br />

Our shirt sales from our web-site generates most of the money needed to get the trucks from one location to the next, this gives us the ability to bring the trucks to your City, so that you can use the Love from them to share it with your community for free. What ever fundraising money you garner from our movement you get to keep for your own non-profits or families that are battling cancer. If you feel that you want to make us a donation we would appreciate it more than you know, but please understand that is not why we are doing this. The shirt sales also give us the ability to go where ever we want, even if that means making a 200 mile detour to see one lady battling cancer for a surprise visit. It gives us the ability to make small videos like the one we made for Molly in Long meadow MA. <br />
Pink Heals Apparel will be our clothing line for the future, our non-profit controls this clothing line and the money from the sale of these clothes will always be used for our non-profit and directed to other non-profits that help women battling cancer. We hope someday these clothes and other accessories will provide us enough income that we can also make monetary donations to non-profits and to families in need of some financial support. <br />

They stand in front of our future leaders, our children and guide them forward trying to make them better people. By adopting our program they stand in front of the class wearing pink in honor of their mother, sister, grandmother or any other special women in their lives, letting them know they care about the women of their communities and their fight against cancer. Each school could hold a fundraiser by selling their shirts and direct the money to a charity close to home. Your schools Superintendent should allow each schools Principal to decide where the money should go, that way we share the Labor from our efforts with many non-profits or families battling this disease. </div></div></div></div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846789554285464265.post-54948272676088304532010-06-22T08:45:00.000-07:002010-06-22T09:13:46.836-07:00Why our Politicians should support this movement!<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDgnhkjViI/AAAAAAAAA6I/HP881SOLJuY/s1600/memphis134.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485631315768464930" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDgnhkjViI/AAAAAAAAA6I/HP881SOLJuY/s320/memphis134.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDgnHc1D1I/AAAAAAAAA6A/sd1k4dUOZjI/s1600/support28.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485631308756750162" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDgnHc1D1I/AAAAAAAAA6A/sd1k4dUOZjI/s320/support28.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDgm0zkakI/AAAAAAAAA54/upX_fuEMF-U/s1600/l_5a50f4ecb262f4d1bc5c4a255de294cb.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485631303751854658" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDgm0zkakI/AAAAAAAAA54/upX_fuEMF-U/s320/l_5a50f4ecb262f4d1bc5c4a255de294cb.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDgmjqHrvI/AAAAAAAAA5w/ZDxsacP4Tv0/s1600/Picture+039.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 247px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485631299148820210" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDgmjqHrvI/AAAAAAAAA5w/ZDxsacP4Tv0/s320/Picture+039.jpg" /></a><br /><br />The fire Chief of Memphis, The Mayor of Kansas City, Director of Homeland Security and former Governor of AZ, Janet Napolitano and Senator Lisa Baker of Pennsylvania.

<div>We are just men that are giving up some time from our daily lives, a few women that realize how important this movement is to inspire communities to rally support for those that have been affected by cancer!</div><br />
<div>The real heroes, celebrities and angels are the thousands of names that have been written on the pink fire trucks. We carry their pain and suffering due to cancer, we share their tears of sorrow and joy, either from a loss or a kick ass victory over this disease. This is not just about women, there are men on this truck who've suffered cancer, their women wanted to share their stories of sacrafice as well, there are little boys and girls, like Molly and Chance who are battling brain cancer. This is not just about survivors, it's about Love and hope and that even though people have lost their lives due to cancer, we allow their memory to live on and their story of sacrafice to be shared.

<div>Tax based organizations, Politicians, Military, Teachers, Labor Unions, Motorcycle groups, Professional Sports Teams and any other group that might be made up of men's men.</div><br />
<div>Why?....This is not about her being sick, this is about recognizing how important she is to us and our communities and that as men we should put her above all else in her battle for life! Guardians of the Ribbon Inc. has picked all Cancer to wage war against on her behalf. Women represent more than 50% of the Population and a large percentage of the vote in this Country. Beyond that, men where put here to protect her at all costs, that is why at the very least we are hoping that these organizations will join us in celebrating her for three days by wearing her color, Pink! These days will be the 25th, 26th and 27th of October, although that is Breast cancer awareness Month and we support all charities that raise money for the fight against cancer, this is not just about Breast Cancer! This is the fastest growing movement in the Country because it is selfless in nature and it's not about the money! If money is raised from this movement please direct it to charities and families close to home. Pink Heals!</div><br />
<div>Look up, open your eyes, see who's wearing your color on these three days and support them accordingly, this is not about a charity, this is not about a business, this is about who you are in our lives and what we are willing to do to show your loved and supported in your fight for life!</div></div></div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846789554285464265.post-44359936473155026572010-06-22T07:38:00.000-07:002010-06-22T08:03:40.656-07:00Creating an army of support for our women!<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDLZXR382I/AAAAAAAAA4w/zfI4Hfwg56E/s1600/Picture+077.bmp"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 355px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485607982743417698" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/TCDLZXR382I/AAAAAAAAA4w/zfI4Hfwg56E/s400/Picture+077.bmp" /></a><br /><div> </div><div>We are wearing pink to honor all women, we march on her behalf against the disease cancer, it made sense to align ourselves with our Countries first line of defense, the Public Safety!</div><div>We are at war against Cancer, we believe that cancer is a terrorist, it has invaded our bodies so we fight against this disease for the most important people in our lives, Women!</div><div>The symbol you see above will eventually be the universal sign of Love and Hope for all women.</div><div>Where ever you see this symbol just know that person or organization puts women first in the battle for life.

It doesn't align them with a specific charity or a specific disease but lets all women know that they CARE about their fight against cancer and other health related issues. With our Country being divided in so many different ways and our economy being what it is, this brings us together for the most important people in our community and in our own personal lives. </div><div>We do not promote the color pink as just representation in the fight against breast cancer but we wear the color pink for the same reasons we put our baby girls in a pink outfit and into a pink crib, she is precious, she is perfect and it is the universal color for our women. Women and Children first in their battle for life, organizations like the Fire and Police realize this and we wear Pink with honor, we wear it collectively, because we CARE!!!!<br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846789554285464265.post-39074133018447425022009-11-09T18:20:00.000-08:002009-11-09T18:28:48.667-08:00Why has Texas gone Pink?<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/SvjOyYThW0I/AAAAAAAAA3s/wsTDbM3DhkU/s1600-h/DSC01571.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402295117944019778" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/SvjOyYThW0I/AAAAAAAAA3s/wsTDbM3DhkU/s400/DSC01571.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/SvjOyPmMHXI/AAAAAAAAA3k/kuvNgw4ADv8/s1600-h/DSC01599.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402295115606400370" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/SvjOyPmMHXI/AAAAAAAAA3k/kuvNgw4ADv8/s400/DSC01599.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/SvjOx-dp0XI/AAAAAAAAA3c/cnXRVr26-AM/s1600-h/DSC01593.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402295111007195506" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/SvjOx-dp0XI/AAAAAAAAA3c/cnXRVr26-AM/s400/DSC01593.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/SvjOxZiE5JI/AAAAAAAAA3U/QPDD53aH4bg/s1600-h/DSC01595.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402295101093635218" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/SvjOxZiE5JI/AAAAAAAAA3U/QPDD53aH4bg/s400/DSC01595.JPG" /></a><br />Texas was the first State to adopt our program and they are making a difference for so many women who are battling cancer and giving all women a sense of hope! We are so grateful for the leadership by their Fire Departments and their Community leaders for seeing how wearing pink does not mean you have breast cancer but it acknowledges that we wear her color to let her know we care and love her and appreciate who she is in our community.

Their City has come together in a big way because of the loss of a special lady "Tonya" she was a wife of a firefighter there in Tyler, Wes Malcolm. Tyler donated a fire truck in honor of Tonya, we are to go home with her and paint her pink and take her across the Country and tell her story. They had a few thousand people out at the event and the whole City will be in pink next year. Cities and Towns across the Country need to follow their lead and make a difference for their women who are battling cancer, the simple act of wearing a pink shirt collectively to show our love, is a great start!!!!<br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846789554285464265.post-36136632313786466472009-10-19T07:26:00.000-07:002009-10-19T07:41:09.313-07:00Memphis was a Great Stop!!!!!!<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/Stx4ZrwClMI/AAAAAAAAA2M/dYJuM6mk44Q/s1600-h/DSC01504.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394318836319294658" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/Stx4ZrwClMI/AAAAAAAAA2M/dYJuM6mk44Q/s400/DSC01504.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/Stx4ZTFipNI/AAAAAAAAA2E/JEPFBnzmocM/s1600-h/DSC01527.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394318829698589906" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/Stx4ZTFipNI/AAAAAAAAA2E/JEPFBnzmocM/s400/DSC01527.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/Stx4YrJRnFI/AAAAAAAAA18/oXyHv6DP5RY/s1600-h/DSC01508.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394318818976832594" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/Stx4YrJRnFI/AAAAAAAAA18/oXyHv6DP5RY/s400/DSC01508.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/Stx4YFo8blI/AAAAAAAAA10/0F4SQpzFna8/s1600-h/DSC01485.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394318808909114962" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/Stx4YFo8blI/AAAAAAAAA10/0F4SQpzFna8/s400/DSC01485.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div>Where would we be if it wasn't for Lisa, she has been there for us on the road and at home handling all the paper work and shirt sales.

Thanks Chief John Pillsbury for what you did and T.A for taking such good care of us!!!!</div></div></div></div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846789554285464265.post-4020367435875807342009-10-16T09:01:00.001-07:002009-10-16T09:09:30.541-07:00Bartlett Fire Department really stepped up!!!<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/StiZj53OFLI/AAAAAAAAA1s/gj5N3XKTVNE/s1600-h/DSC01193.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393229395883070642" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/StiZj53OFLI/AAAAAAAAA1s/gj5N3XKTVNE/s400/DSC01193.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/StiZjei_ESI/AAAAAAAAA1k/26XPr-qgFgU/s1600-h/DSC01208.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393229388550443298" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/StiZjei_ESI/AAAAAAAAA1k/26XPr-qgFgU/s400/DSC01208.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/StiZi-8M02I/AAAAAAAAA1c/QCsW3m-eScI/s1600-h/DSC01201.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393229380066268002" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/StiZi-8M02I/AAAAAAAAA1c/QCsW3m-eScI/s400/DSC01201.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/StiZiu9I34I/AAAAAAAAA1U/wWPGaKeKw3E/s1600-h/DSC01204.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393229375775235970" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_w-s0o5Nui2c/StiZiu9I34I/AAAAAAAAA1U/wWPGaKeKw3E/s400/DSC01204.JPG" /></a><br />Bartlett Fire Department made quite a statement to their community with these pink fire trucks. Each Community does something a little different and Bartlett Fire was the first to tour the trucks throughout their community to the Schools. We have an important message to share and why not to our children. We are asking all schools to adopt our Cares Enough to Wear Pink program and have all teachers in pink what a statement this is for our children to see all of us in pink honoring our women and helping them in their fight against cancer. </div><div>The Hindu Temple and the Hindu Religion is based around Love when they saw these trucks I think they realized what they mean and it is just purely "LOVE" money can't buy what we sell and that is love. These trucks with all these stories of <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">sacrifice</span> cannot be bought, either can this magnificent Temple. What a day we had and the people we meet on this tour will never be forgotten.<br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Pink Heals Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874194411464551194noreply@blogger.com0
