Our Story
More likely than not, you or someone you know has been diagnosed with cancer. It’s the unknown factor that still has no definitive cure. At Rick’s Tree Service, we understand the lasting impact breast cancer can have on the lives of patients and their loved ones. For Mary Lynn Mammucari, wife of founder and partner of Rick’s Tree Service, breast cancer meant a change in perspective. Despite her grandmother and mother’s love and commitment to their families, despite their steadfast optimism in the midst of challenging times, these two strong women fought and ultimately lost their battles to breast cancer. A positive note: Rick’s grandmother, now age 90, is a 19 year breast cancer survivor.
Our Commitment
While we can’t bring these women back, there is one thing we can do in their memory.
Help Find a Cure
At Rick’s Tree Service we have a designated “Pink Team”. A team of our employees who proudly wear pink Rick’s Tree Service t-shirts at our jobs and use a pink chipper onsite. When our “Pink Team” works, we donate 5% of the proceeds to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
Our team has joined the fight against cancer, and every day we hope to continue to raise awareness about this life changing disease.
How You Can Help
When it comes to scheduling your upcoming job, you can request that our Pink Team works with you.
