For each signature the PINK Jeep gets, Step One will donate up to $5,000 to St. Joseph’s/Candler Telfair Mammography Fund.

The goal of St. Joseph’s/Candler’s Telfair Mammography Fund is to ensure all women have access to mammography and breast health services, regardless of whether they are uninsured or underinsured.

In addition to the PINK Jeep, Step One Automotive Group has invited the Keeping Abreast Foundation to their Fort Walton Beach Headquarters.

On Friday, October 22ndWear It Pink Day, the foundation will receive a donation to continue their efforts to inspire hope and enhance life for those affected by breast cancer through early detection, advocacy, education, and support services.

  • Since their mammography program began, The Keeping Abreast Foundation has provided over 2,153 mammograms and other diagnostic services to individuals across the Florida/Alabama Panhandle region.
