Allen Turner Hyundai Helps Fight Childhood Cancer

PENSACOLA, Fla. - Sept. 19, 2013 - PRLog -- Pensacola residents are surely already aware of the impact Allen Turner Hyundai (http://www.allenturnerauto.com/) has on the local community, serving as far more than simply an auto dealership. So it should come as little surprise to hear that they are working with Hyundai's Hope on Wheels yet again.

Hope on Wheels has donated over $72 million since its debut in 1998, and for the fifteenth anniversary of the initiative, they do not look to be slowing down at all. With nearly $5 million in donations having been made for September already, it is no coincidence that Hyundai's charity comes into the spotlight around this time each year. September, as many may already be aware, is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

Allen Turner has expressed great pride in being able to contribute to Hope on Wheels, a conglomeration of all Hyundai dealers in the country. “We are pleased to be associated with the automaker in fighting childhood cancer and helping to find a cure,” said one representative.

While 15,000 new cases of childhood cancer are diagnosed each year, only 3% of the federal cancer research funds are provided to pediatric cancer research, so Hyundai is trying to take up the slack, with the ultimate goal being to bring about a world where no child ever has to hear “you have cancer.”

Readers may have seen a once-white, handprint-covered Hyundai Veloster on the roads; those colorful handprints come from cancer survivors. What could be more personal than a handprint, showing the world just how many kids are currently fighting or have beaten childhood cancer? And now, with the purchase of every brand new Hyundai vehicle (http://www.allenturnerauto.com/VehicleSearchResults?searc...), drivers support the fight against cancer and contribute toward the automaker's funding of cancer research and treatment.
