JAX Tyres & Auto is calling on car owners across Australia to come together to raise awareness for breast cancer, with the launch of special edition pink tyre valve caps, available in store for a donation, with all funds going to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF). 

20,000 pink valve caps – one for every person diagnosed with breast cancer in Australia each year – will be available at JAX Tyres & Auto stores nationwide from Monday 29th May for vehicle owners to add to one or more of their tyres. 

Since their inception in 1994, NBCF has invested over $200 million into more than 600 world-class research projects across Australia, and JAX Tyres & Auto are proud to be strengthening support for the life-changing charity. 

JAX Tyres & Auto CEO, Steve Grossrieder, says of the partnership: “Sometimes even the smallest things can make the biggest difference, which is why we’re so proud of finding a way to help the humble valve cap to become a symbol of support in breast cancer awareness. 

“Every time someone catches a glimpse of pink on Australia’s roads, the chances are it will be thanks to someone’s support for the National Breast Cancer Foundation, thanks to JAX. So, grab your caps and let’s roll together to help spread the National Breast Cancer Foundation’s crucial message across millions of kilometres of Australia’s roads.” 

Associate Professor Cleola Anderiesz, CEO of the National Breast Cancer Foundation, adds: "At the National Breast Cancer Foundation, we are working towards our vision of Zero Deaths from breast  

cancer and are proud to partner with JAX Tyres & Auto. As NBCF is entirely community-funded, we rely on the generosity of corporate partners like JAX Tyres & Auto to help fund world-class breast cancer research in Australia."
