Unfortunately, most of us know someone who has been affected by breast cancer in some way. Whether it be a family member, friend or co-worker, there is a good chance someone in your life’s circle has dealt with the disease. But fortunately, thanks to many efforts geared toward awareness, early detection is much more common. This is huge, as the key to beating this ugly disease is often catching it in its early stages.

Chevrolet is one of the many companies that is throwing its hat into the ring in the ongoing fight against breast cancer. You see, every time you test drive a car in the Chicagoland area either here at Martin Chevrolet or any local dealership, Chevrolet will contribute $10 toward the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer program. Considering the number of test drives that take place nationwide, this is quite a commitment.

In addition to simply taking a test drive, Chevrolet also encourages people to help spread the word by sharing their experience. Take a picture of yourself after your test drive and use the hashtag #IDriveFor and share the story of who you are dedicating your drive to. Everyone has someone that could use a little encouragement in their fight, and like we said, awareness is the key.

Of course, direct donations to the American Cancer Society are also welcome and can be submitted by visiting cancer.org/chevroletmsabc. For information on the many cancer walks taking place, visit MakingStridesWalk.org.

This year, help spread the word with a Chevy test drive and by using #IDriveFor. What you do, however small, could make a big difference.
