Snow Shovels for A Cause, Beating Cancer

Why Buy a PINK Snow Shovel?

  • Cancer is the second-leading cause of death worldwide.
  • 10 million people die from cancer every year.
  • More than 40% of cancer-related death could be preventable as they are linked to modifiable risk factors such as smoking, alcohol use, poor diet and physical inactivity.
  • Almost at least one third of all deaths related to cancer could be prevented through routine screening, and early detection and treatment.
  • 70% of cancer deaths occur in low-to-middle income countries.
  • Millions of lives could be saved each year by implementing resource appropriate strategies for prevention, early detection and treatment.
  • The total annual economic cost of cancer is estimated at US$1.16 trillion.

Cancer is a disease which occurs when changes in a group of normal cells within the body lead to uncontrolled, abnormal growth forming a lump called a tumor; this is true of all cancers except leukemia (cancer of the blood). If left untreated, tumors can grow and spread into the surrounding normal tissue, or to other parts of the body via the bloodstream and lymphatic systems, and can affect the digestive, nervous and circulatory systems or release hormones that may affect body function.

There's barely a family in America that hasn't had a member that battled this dreaded condition...

And the Thibodeau family is no exception. Fighting cancer is a battle we are all in together and this is their way to play a part.

Since 2014, Mount Waldo Plastics has produced and sold enough PINK snow shovels and snow pushers to raise over $80,000 for the race to find a cure for cancer, that dreaded disease that has touched every family in America.

Once a year I travel to Maine, and when I do, I am sure to stop at Reny's in Topsham for a Mountain Mover. The BEST snow shovel made!
