On October 16th, a Chevrolet car show will be held in Smithtown for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This event will last from 10 a.m to 5 p.m. This car show's motive is looking to raise money to help the fight against cancer for not only women but for several men diagnosed with breast cancer as well.

In 2010, about 207,090 women were predicted to be diagnosed with breast cancer according to seer.cancer.gov.Chevrolet of Smithtown is looking to change that number. This car show is going to donate one hundred dollars from each vehicle sold to the Huntington Breast Cancer Action Coalition. Chevrolet is looking to raise and donate ten thousand dollars to the Breast Cancer Coalition, as stated by the manager, Peter Kontzanamys.  There will also be a ten dollar fee upon entrance which will also be donated to the coalition.

Along with these donations Chevrolet is also asking customers to donate their rebates, ten dollars to twenty-five dollars, on oil changes to the American Cancer Society. Therefore, this car show isn't the only thing that Chevrolet will be doing to help donate to Cancer but it will definitely be one of the valuable events to help breast cancer.
