Henry Schein Partners with American Cancer Society to Fight Breast Cancer
Third annual ‘Think Pink’ program provides support for breast cancer research
MELVILLE, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Henry Schein, Inc. (Nasdaq:HSIC), the largest distributor of healthcare products and services to office-based practitioners in the combined North American and European markets, has partnered with the American Cancer Society for the third annual “Think Pink, Practice Pink” program to raise awareness and support a cure for breast cancer, an initiative of Henry Schein Cares, the Company’s global social responsibility program.
The “Think Pink, Practice Pink” campaign has been launched to hundreds of thousands of Henry Schein dental and medical customers. Henry Schein is offering a selection of “pink” merchandise, produced by the Company’s many participating supplier partners. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of these products will be donated to the American Cancer Society for lifesaving research, prevention and early detection of the disease, and to support programs for thousands of cancer patients and their families. The “Think Pink, Practice Pink” program runs from October 1st to December 19th to coincide with Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October.
“Unfortunately, breast cancer touches the lives of a large percentage of our healthcare practitioner customers and their patients, as well as many of our Team Schein Members,” said Stanley M. Bergman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Henry Schein. “We enthusiastically support the important work of the American Cancer Society through our ‘Think Pink, Practice Pink’ program, and encourage the participation of our supplier partners and customers in the effort. Through this four-way partnership, we believe that we can help raise awareness of this important national health issue and provide concrete support to further American Cancer Society goals.”
