LOS CABOS PINK HICKORY STICKS
FROM £8.95 They say: Inspired by Montreal drummer Elie Bertrand. For: Drummers Range: Los Cabos drumsticks Spec: To mark the release of these colourful sticks, Los Cabos is launching a campaign called Think Pink, a six-month drive to raise money for breast cancer research charities across Canada. “Think Pink is a great opportunity
for musicians and music lovers to support breast cancer research,” said Matt Carter, the director of marketing for Los Cabos Drumsticks. “October is breast cancer awareness month in Canada. During the months and weeks leading up to the various fundraising events that take place, the colour pink is everywhere and then suddenly it’s gone. Think Pink is our way to help keep the colour and its message in the public eye long after the majority of annual fundraising events have taken place.”
Between November 1st 2010 and
April 30th 2011, the company will make a donation of 25¢ for every pair of Hickory 5A Pinks sold. The total amount raised will be announced at the end of the campaign. From: Summerfield 0191 414 9000
