PRESS RELEASE
CONTRACTORS NAIL BREAST CANCER
In celebration of its first year of operation and in association with its member contractors, thecontractorsside.com, announces its "Spring Thing," by conducting an Ebay auction of "Mommie Hammers," proceeds to go to The National Association of Breast Cancer Awareness. The donations have been designated for mammograms for women who cannot afford them.
thecontractorsside.com believes the best solution for the problem of breast cancer is early detection.
The Mommie Hammer has a pink handle so there's no mistaking to whom the hammer belongs. It is a durable, quality product that in no way resembles a bouquet of flowers, but it will remind the user every time she picks it up that the giver was thinking of her when it was bought.
Every woman needs a hammer, a high heel shoe just won't do the job of hanging a picture, pounding down staples, or prying off sticky thingys that kids get in the darnedest places.
This event, to be launched on Mother's Day, the first annual fundraiser for thecontractorsside.com, was chosen because so many members have been touched by the disease, either a mother (we all have mothers) or other family member or loved one.
thecontractorsside.com hopes the auction will begin a concerted effort to catch breast cancer in its earliest stages, thereby eliminating the tremendous costs associated with advanced breast cancer. Contractors are always looking for ways to prevent problems before they arise, so this project is a natural for them.
Contractors care, and this is just one way they can show it.
The auction will be a go by Mother's Day, and the site can be found by logging onto
http://thecontractorsside.com, http://contractors-united.com, http:4allcontractors.com, http://thehardwarecity.com, or go to Ebay and key in thecontractorsside.com.
Eighty percent of the proceeds go to the charity, the rest covers handling, shipping, and administrative costs. Bids open at $25.00 USD.
On thecontractorsside.com will be the names and locations of all the contractors who have participated in the event, and some will have personal stories of their experiences with the disease. Click on the "Honor Roll" to read.
Thanks to all who participate.
