Run For The Cure
In the middle of my contract with Steele Ford Lincoln I was asked if I could help design their retail showroom for their part of the Run for the Cure campaign. They raised money for the run and sold tickets on a brand new Mustang convertible for extra funds for the cure.
I worked with a representative from the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation to mimic their branding, then petitioned the staff for names of those they personally wanted to identify, painting the names and ribbons throughout the space with window text promoting the event.
I had always wanted to participate in this event so they were kind enough to let me raise money and run with their team. Although I was the only one racing (can’t help myself) I did the 5k in under 20 minutes and many of my clients pitched in some cash for the cause. And I got a cool t-shirt!
