Modern Concrete Pumping, Inc. for Breast Cancer awareness
Local Pump Company Paint Truck Pink to Support Breast Cancer Awareness
Newington, CT, October 1, 2015: Modern Concrete Pumping, Inc. recently
bought a new pink concrete pump. For every yard of concrete the new pink
truck pumps a percentage will be donated to Breast Cancer research in honor
of a Newington Teacher who is fighting Breast Cancer.
Modern
Concrete Pumping, Inc, currently has a fleet of 18 pumps. Their newest pump
is a 20 Meter (z) boom that doesn’t have the usual yellow and red company
colors. It was painted pink for Breast Cancer awareness. For every yard of
concrete this truck pumps, a percentage will be donated.
Marcus King, Owner,
of Modern Concrete Pumping, Inc., explains, “We wanted to show our support
for our good friend Carol Corriveau, who is currently fighting Breast
Cancer. So we put her name on the pump. We felt that if we could get the
word out by using our pumps it will increase awareness and hopefully provoke
people to donate. This new machine is a popular size truck that many
customers will request. We are hoping it will be used every day to increase
the amount of money we will be donating. We also printed new company shirts.
Not the usual safety green, or orange you will see on most construction
sites, but pink.”
Carol Corriveau is a Speech-Language Pathologist in
the Newington School system and loved by many. Her husband, Dean, was in the
concrete pumping industry and now is a Newington Police officer. Both hold
careers serving the community.
They are a great family and have a lot of
support and many people behind them. Carol explains, “I believe this pump
will generate awareness for people to not only donate to a great cause but
to remind women to make a mammogram appointment for themselves. Whether it’s
visible on the road, or on a job site, I’m confident this will increase
awareness.”
Concrete Pumps have been in the
construction industry for well over 70 years. A concrete pump is used when
concrete needs to be placed outside the limits of a concrete truck’s (mixer)
capability. Whether it’s in your backyard for a new pool, bridge, or a
high-rise, the concrete pump places the concrete where it’s needed.
