Mader Workshop Goes Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness

Mader Workshop Goes Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness

Mader Group was proud to go pink for the month of October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer, with nine Australians losing their lives to the disease every day. 

This cause is particularly close to our hearts, with team members and loved ones being closely affected. We decided to shine a light on the devastating impact of breast cancer by having many of our team rock pink PPE throughout October. 

Mader also released six special edition pink field service vehicles. Rolling onto sites across Australia in style, the owners of these vehicles have all been touched personally by breast cancer. 

One employee sporting a pink ute is Auto Electrician, Michael. Michael said that he was honoured to drive the pink ute, after his mother in-law sadly lost her battle to breast cancer last year. 

‘’Breast cancer research is near and dear to my heart. I am honoured to be able to drive a pink ute in my mother in-law’s memory, and hope that it helps spread awareness of the horrible disease,’’ said Michael. 

Heavy Duty Diesel Mechanic, Melinda, also received a pink field service vehicle, stating that she is looking forward to being an ambassador for the cause. 

‘’As a woman, breast cancer is always something that lingers in the back of my mind. I hope that by driving a pink ute, it will open conversation about the disease and remind people how important it is to get regularly checked.’’ said Melinda. 

Mader also hosted over 60 employees at its workshop facility in Maddington, Perth for a special long-table breakfast, which raised funds and awareness for the cause. 

The monies raised will be donated to National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF), Australia’s leading body funding world-class breast cancer research.
