What is Brakes for Breasts?
- Brakes for Breasts is a nationwide fundraiser that started in 2011 with five automotive repair shops in Cleveland, Ohio. Today they are joined with over 100 independent auto repair shops across the United States and Canada. As of October 2024 this this fundraiser campaign has raised over $1.8 million for breast cancer vaccine research at the Cleveland Clinic.
- At the heart of this campaign is the vision to create a breast cancer vaccine. Your brake service will not only benefit your vehicle but will contribute to important research that is aimed to PREVENT breast cancer!
- The Cleveland Clinic is currently in Phase 1a of clinical trials, with 1b announced. These trials test the vaccine on a smaller group of individuals, evaljuating its safety, appropriate dosage, and potential side effects. The vaccine aims to protect women from developing breast cancer by targeting a protein found in triple-negative breast cancer, the most lethal form of the disease.
- More funding is needed to advance to Phases 2 and 3 which are critical for further testing and development of this life-saving vaccine. If you would like to donate directly towards the fundraiser you can go to their website: www.BrakesForBreasts.com and click the "Make a Donation" button. We encourage you to check-out their website where you can learn a lot more details about their work!
- Our team at Graham Auto Repair joined the Brakes for Breasts fundraiser in 2020. This year marks out 5th year participating! As a result of all the brake services we've performed in past years, we've been able to donate a total of $6,857.66 to support breast cancer vaccine research. We are excited to continue this mission in 2024!
