UPS Delivers the Cure

UPSers give thousands of volunteer hours to support the race logistics at Susan G. Komen's Race for the Cure events . Through these race events, Komen is dedicated to serving people during every stage of breast cancer, from awareness to finding a cure. UPS volunteers help to distribute t-shirts, organize race logistics, and serve water and snacks to race participants.

In addition to volunteering, UPS has become the official shipping sponsor for the Passionately Pink for the Cure awareness and fundraiser program that takes place during October, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. UPS donated $50,000 to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation program and is shipping the Passionately Pink participation kits to businesses participating in the campaign.

“The UPS-Komen partnership represents a powerful addition to the fight against breast cancer,” said Christine Owens, UPS senior vice president of communications and brand management, “The women and men of UPS are committed to helping individuals and groups deliver the cure for breast cancer through this incredibly worthwhile program.”

 

	Business Strengthening America Business Strengthening America (BSA) is a business-driven, peer-to-peer campaign aimed at increasing workplace volunteerism to meet the critical needs of local communities, develop employees, and strengthen community organizations.   Created by businesses in response to President Bush's “Call to Service” in June 2002 and the launch of the USA Freedom Corps, business leaders around the nation came together to create BSA. By mobilizing the business community in support of volunteer service, it helped build stronger, healthier communities that are critical to the economic strength and vitality of America . Mike Eskew, UPS Chairman and CEO, was one of 18 CEOs who helped shape BSA in 2002, and he continued to play a leadership role in the campaign by serving as Steering Committee Chairman during 2005.       All businesses - from small companies to Fortune 500 corporations - are helping encourage and inspire Americans to participate in service and volunteering activities that are the cornerstones of a healthy society.  The BSA business collaboration worked towards long-term cultural change in the workplace that makes service to the community an integral part of American business culture.
