PFT supports Breast Cancer Awareness. During the month of October Ladder 121 supports some pink graphics and employees have the option to wear duty shirts with pink lettering, which replaces the typical white lettering. (Thanks to Beacon Signs in Avon for donating the signage on Ladder 121) October is nationally regarded as Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Its purpose is to serve as an advocate for awareness, helping raise funds for further research in order to help prevent, develop treatment or find a cure for the disease. The month also serves as a support system. Breast cancer affects both men and women. As of 2014, an estimated 40,000 deaths occur due to breast cancer for both genders, according to the Susan G. Komen website.
