Local Repair Shop Joins hundreds in Putting the Brakes on Breast Cancer

Throughout October Collinsville Auto Repair is looking to end breast cancer with a unique offer for customers.

During the Month of October, Collinsville Auto Repair in Canton, CT and hundreds of Independent Auto Repair Shops across the US are raising funds for a breast cancer vaccine as part of the Brakes for Breast fundraiser.

As part of the fundraiser, Collinsville Auto Repair is giving away FREE (quality) brake pads to non-commercial vehicles. The customer simply pays the labor and any other ancillary parts necessary to complete the brake job and Collinsville Auto Repair will then donate 10% of the brake job directly to Dr. Vincent Tuohy & the Cleveland Clinic Breast Cancer Vaccine Research Fund.

100% of what we donate goes directly to research! Celebrating our 10th year and $1,000,000.00!

2020 marks the tenth year for the Brakes For Breasts fundraiser.

2011 Our 1st year – 5 shops in Ohio raised $10,000

2012 Our 2nd year – 27 shops in 17 states raised $32,848

2013 Our 3rd year – 66 independent auto repair shops in 27 states raised $66,499

2014 Our 4th year – 143 independent auto repair shops in 29 states raised $115,236.53

2015 Our 5th year – 174 independent auto repair shops in 32 states raised $141,868

2016 Our 6th year – 131 independent auto repair shops in 35 states (most ever!) $125,867.37

2017 Our 7th year – 114 independent auto repair shops in 34 states raised $114,389.20

2018 Our 8th year – 138 independent auto repair shops in 34 states and 2 countries raised $141,061.80

2019 Our 9th year – 141 independent auto repair shops in 38 states and 2 countries raised $194,160.04

To date donation total is $940,931.74!

This Brakes For Breasts fundraiser is different from any other breast cancer fundraising campaigns:

  • laboratory animals in actually preventing breast cancer. Think about Polio, eradicated because of a vaccine, a distant memory for most generations. This is the same principle!
  • Dr. Tuohy and his team are rounding the corner and are hoping to start Phase 1 trials in early 2021.
  • 100% of the proceeds from the ‘Brakes for Breasts’ fundraiser goes directly to the Cleveland Clinic for research on the Breast Cancer Vaccine.
  • These are just “mom & pop” shops across the country, independent business owners that have joined hands for a great cause.

To schedule your brakes appointment with Collinsville Auto Repair call 860-693-4588. For more information about the Breast Cancer Vaccine, Dr. Tuohy go to www.brakesforbreasts.com
