Drive Out Cancer — Be Part of Something Bigger

Take a test drive this weekend and Chevy will contribute $10 to the American Cancer Society.

It’s very easy to take life for granted. It’s easy to get caught up in the drama of everyday life – the bickering at work, the irritation with your significant other’s lack of tidiness, the whining kids…

It’s easy to forget about just how blessed we are.  It’s easy to forget to be grateful for our friends, our families and our HEALTH.

It’s one of the many reasons why our team at Carter Chevrolet is proud to support The American Cancer Society and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer.

You’ve heard the numbers.  Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United states, other than skin cancer.  It’s the second leading cause of cancer death in women.   One in about eight women will be diagnosed with it in her life.  One in 36 will die from it. 

This weekend, Carter Chevrolet is taking part in a Chevrolet-backed initiative to support the battle.  Chevrolet will donate $10 to the American Cancer Society for everyone that comes in on Saturday, October 6 and test drives a vehicle. Click here to schedule yours.

Visit our service department in the month of October and opt to contribute your eligible service rebate to the cause….and Chevy will match that contribution, dollar for dollar.  We’ve got more information on our homepage here.

Chances are, you or someone you know has battled – and hopefully won – against breast cancer.  Here’s your chance to help millions in their fight against a silent killer.
