October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. Although rare, men can get breast cancer too. It is important that we remain aware of these statistics and get checked annually. Early detection is huge! There are over 3.8 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we encourage all employees of Wholesale to wear pink.

 

Bear a Non Profit Organization

Wholesale was able to sponsor 60 children in 2022! As we continue in the holiday season, it is important to really reflect on what a difference we made to these children of all ages.
