Arizona-based Pink Heals and its pink firetruck and bus rolled into St. Luke's Anderson Campus on a late summer Saturday to raise money for the Cancer Center. In addition to firetrucks galore, there was food, T-Shirt sales, artwork, balloons, face-painting by Dazzleberry, and of course, the cha-cha slide.

"Every time you stomp to the left or stomp to the right, you're helping stomp out cancer," a DJ told the enthusiastic kids.

The next day, Pink Heals was in Nazareth.

All money raised by Pink Heals goes directly to some organization that helps women, not to any volunteer firefighting company.

Nancy Run Firefighter and Safety Officer Bill Andress, who with his wife will soon form a Pink Heals Chapter here in the Lehigh Valley explained. "Women are the foundation of everything," he stated. "It's not just breast cancer, but all illnesses that affect our women."

In Nazareth, for example, the pink trucks stopped to help raise money for bone marrow registrations.

Pink Heals Tours, a group of volunteers founded by Dave Graybill, left the Lehigh Valley for Rhode Island. From there, they will slowly go south, finishing in Bayton, Texas, in early November.

Over five years, they have enlisted the support of approximately 4,000 communities.

Their trip to the Lehigh Valley also included fundraising at Applebees along Route 191 and at The Keystone Pub.
