somehow, I don’t believe that dry cleaning chemical suppliers will lead us to an end to the breast cancer epidemic.
New England-based AristoCraft Supply, the self-described “premier distributor of drycleaning, laundry and tailoring supplies”, apparently disagrees.
Earlier this year, they launched a campaign called “Clean to Save a Life”, to sell pink items to dry cleaners. “Pink tissue, pink capes, pink garment covers, pink invoice paper,” says AristoCraft vice president Rick Ross. “If you want pink, we’ve got it.” An undisclosed amount of proceeds will purportedly be donated to the American Breast Cancer Foundation.
What this campaign doesn’t tell you is that while you “clean to save a life”, you could very well be endangering yours.
