Medline is donating money to breast cancer-related charities in conjunction with a 'Pink Glove' promotion.
Many viewers have been delighted by the above-displayed Pink Glove Dance forBreast Cancer Awareness video, put together by the staff of Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland, Oregon, in conjunction with Medline, a provider of healthcare supplies and equipment.It is true that Medline has been engaged in a promotion involving its Generation Pink vinyl gloves in order to promote breast cancer awareness, with the company donating a portion of its sales of that product to National Breast Cancer Foundation (NCBF). However, as a representative with Medline's Corporate Marketing department told us, the company is not engaged in any charitable campaign based upon the number of times the 'Pink Glove Dance' video is viewed:Medline has donated almost a half million dollars to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to provide education and free mammograms to those in need and continues to make contributions every year. We plan on making a contribution of $100,000 this March to NBCF. We also are donating a portion of the sales from the pink gloves to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. We were involved with the video to create awareness for breast cancer in a fun and creative way. At this time, we do not have any plans to make a contribution based on the number of hits to the video.
