PENDLETON — The Pendleton Round-Up Tough Enough To Wear Pink campaign announced it received a generous donation from ClickIt RV in Milton-Freewater, thanks to RV sales in support of the cause.

ClickIt RV logistics manager Brian McHugh and sales consultant Monica Martinez-Gonzalez presented TETWP Co-Chairs Jill Gregg and Casey White-Zollman with a $3,000 check on Nov. 13, 2024, following a month and a half of sales-driven contributions. A portion of every recreational vehicle sold at ClickIt RV from TETWP Day at the Pendleton Round-Up on Sept. 12 through the end of October — Breast Cancer Awareness Month — was earmarked for the TETWP campaign.

This marks the third consecutive year ClickIt RV has supported TETWP.

“We’re incredibly grateful for ClickIt RV’s ongoing commitment to TETWP,” White-Zollman said in a press release. “Their partnership has been invaluable, and their generosity makes a real difference in the lives of local breast cancer patients and survivors. It’s truly a pleasure to work with such a dedicated team.”

TETWP works to raise awareness for breast cancer while providing financial support to local patients and survivors. The campaign donates 100% of its proceeds to three local organizations that directly aid individuals battling breast cancer: CHI St. Anthony Hospital’s Cancer Clinic, the Eastern Oregon Cancer Network and the Kickin’ Cancer New Beginnings program. These organizations offer a range of services, from providing breast prosthetics and lymphedema sleeves to offering housing assistance for patients undergoing radiation therapy and free wellness programs for those in remission.

The Tough Enough to Wear Pink campaign is nearing the conclusion of its 2024 fundraising efforts, with plans to announce the final contribution totals toward the end of November. The campaign raises funds through merchandise sales, donations on TETWP Day at the Pendleton Round-Up, sponsorships and raffle proceeds.

Tough Enough To Wear Pink is a grassroots initiative aimed at raising awareness and funds to support local breast cancer patients and survivors in Eastern Oregon. All proceeds from the campaign benefit local organizations that provide direct services to those affected by breast cancer.
