Thompson Toyota Turns Pink For October; Invites Public To Shine & Sign

DOYLESTOWN, PA — Thompson Toyota is going pink for October.

The dealership is once again teaming up with Pine2Pink to raise breast cancer awareness by ‘pink-ifying’ its lot and by hosting its annual Shine & Sign event on Thursday, October 13 from 6 to 7 pm.

Everyone is invited to come out that evening to sign its "hero's wall" on the front of the dealership while enjoying local vendors.

In addition, they will hear several keynote speakers - Dr. Mary Brownsberger, a local breast cancer survivor and former Director of Psychology at Good Shepherd Rehabilitation, and breast surgeon Dr. Monique Gary from Grand View Health Surgery.

Thompson Toyota’s luminous pink panels will be a visual celebration of survivors, encouragement for those in recovery, as well as to memorialize loved ones lost.

Thompson will keep the panels up for the month of October in honor of survivors and those battling the disease and in remembrance of lost loved ones.

To raise awareness, Thompson has also bathed its entire site in pink lights for the month of October.

“They had three or four guys up in a bucket truck for an entire day changing 330 lights across their entire lot,” said Keith Fenimore, the driving force behind Pine2Pink.

“Our fabulous detail team is hard at work turning our dealerships pink!” wrote Thompson on its Facebook page. “Why are we ‘pink-ifying’ Thompson? Because we are a proud presenting sponsor of Pine2Pink and for the last few years, we've ‘pinked’ out our dealerships to bring awareness to their cause.”

Additionally, all month long Thompson will donate $20 to breast cancer research for every alignment at any Thompson’s Service Centers in Doylestown and Willow Grove.
