Breast Cancer Survivor Honored with RNR Tire Express’ THINK PINK Package

TAMPA, FL (NOVEMBER 4, 2024) – RNR Tire Express (RNR), the nation’s leading franchise retailer for tires and custom wheels, announces the winner of its 9th annual Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign. With the support of RNR franchisees around the country, their teams donated a portion of all tire sales during the month of October – Breast Cancer Awareness Month – to foundations advancing the cause of breast cancer research and the search for a cure. 

This year’s deserving winner, Dawn Henderson, is a two-time breast cancer survivor and dedicated third grade teacher from the Tampa-area. She was selected after being nominated 15 times by colleagues, friends, and even students’ parents. Despite her two-time fight against the disease, Henderson worked tirelessly to ensure her students didn’t feel anything was amiss, even making house calls during the pandemic to ensure her students felt engaged and appreciated. 

Having been selected as this year’s grand prize recipient, Henderson was awarded a THINK PINK package, which includes $1,000 cash, a set of new tires, and a VIP spa day package, all courtesy of the team at RNR Tire Express.

The campaign is one of the longest-standing giveback initiatives in the brand’s 24-year history, this year alone bringing over 2,500 nominations. It allows family and friends a chance to recognize those in their lives battling against breast cancer with a small token that lets them know they aren’t alone, and they have an entire community behind them.

“Every year we set out to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those who have fought brave battles against breast cancer, and year over year we are overwhelmed by the support and stories shared by the community,” said Larry Sutton, founder of RNR Tire Express. “This legacy we have created is rooted in our belief in serving more than just our customers, but giving back to truly remarkable individuals. As we conclude our ninth year of this giveaway, we hope that this support can provide a much-deserved positive impact in the lives of our honorees.”
