Ford’s Garage revving up support for Pink Fund
Ford’s Garage is once again turning pink for a purpose for Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October.
The restaurant chain is continuing its longtime partnership with Pink Fund as the nonprofit celebrates 20 years of providing financial support to breast cancer patients and their families.
Throughout October, guests can visit their local Ford’s Garage restaurant and purchase a limited-edition Pink Fund T-shirt for $20, with 100% of proceeds benefiting Pink Fund. The nonprofit provides financial assistance for basic living expenses to breast cancer patients in active treatment, helping ease financial stress so they can focus on their health, recovery and families.
The 2026 campaign marks the 7th year Ford’s Garage and Pink Fund have joined forces. Through the generosity of its guests and team members, Ford’s Garage has raised more than $60,000 for the organization to date.
“Seeing our guests rally around Pink Fund year after year has made this partnership incredibly meaningful to our entire Ford’s Garage family,” said Billy Downs, president of Ford’s Garage. “This year is especially significant as Pink Fund celebrates its 20th anniversary. We’re proud to recognize that milestone while giving our guests an easy way to support breast cancer patients and families when they need it most.”
Since its founding in 2006, Pink Fund has worked to address financial stress that can accompany a breast cancer diagnosis. The organization provides financial assistance for essential expenses such as housing, transportation, utilities and insurance, helping patients maintain financial stability while undergoing treatment.
“For 20 years, Pink Fund has been committed to helping breast cancer patients keep a roof over their heads, food on the table and utilities on while they undergo treatment,” said Molly MacDonald, co-founder and CEO of Pink Fund. “Longtime partners like Ford’s Garage make that work possible. Their continued commitment and the generosity of their guests help us provide meaningful financial relief to patients at an incredibly challenging time.”
Ford’s Garage on Long Island is located at the Smith Haven Mall in Lake Grove.
