The Pink Heals Tour 2010 has made several stops across Illinois, including Rockford, the IAFC trade show in Chicago, Matteson, Naperville, and now Buffalo Grove. Last night, in Buffalo Grove, the three pink fire engines were joined by a Mount Prospect police car adorned with pink graphics and the Buffalo Grove IAFF Honor Guard. The trucks—two EONE Hush engines and a Spartan FMC Sentinel—previously served in Bangor, ME; Tyler, TX; and Henry, VA.
On the Pink Heals Tour Facebook page, the group describes itself as: “We are the 'Cares Enough to Wear Pink': Guardians of the Ribbon.†This organization drives pink fire trucks across the U.S. to support women fighting cancer and inspire men to get involved. Founded in Phoenix, Arizona, by firefighter Dave Graybill, the initiative aims to raise awareness and encourage community involvement in the fight against cancer.
From October 25 to 27, they encourage public safety personnel, local leaders, and citizens to wear something pink to show support for those battling cancer. As part of their mission, they emphasize the importance of unity and hope for those affected by the disease. They're also asking the public to help spread the word and join the cause.
Firefighter Steve Rusin from the Buffalo Grove Fire Department has been selling pink and blue t-shirts to raise funds for the Pink Heals Tour. Each truck is covered in messages from people whose lives have been touched by cancer, making every stop a meaningful experience.
Photos from the event capture the pink fire engines, the IAFF Honor Guard, and the community’s enthusiastic response. These images highlight not just the visual impact of the tour but also the deep emotional connection it creates with those who witness it.
