Breast cancer affects millions of people, all over the world and from all walks of life, every year. Sadly, many people are unaware of the devastating impact of breast cancer, and that men can also be afflicted with this disease. More awareness is needed if we are to stem the tide of those lost to cancer.
Chad Fisher Construction is proud to announce our sponsorship of the Johnson Girls Racing (JGR) team. They are dedicating their racing to breast cancer awareness. And to show our support for this worthy cause, the CFC logo will be displayed on both drivers’ cars this race season.
2024 Car Designs For Johnson Girls Racing
The 2024 designs for both JGR racing cars will contribute to cancer awareness, particularly breast cancer. They will display cancer ribbons and a pink design, to support the fighters, admire the survivors, and honor those taken in the fight against cancer.
When we see them finish each lap, these ribbons will remind us of the deeper cause behind all the excitement and cheering at the race. We want you to know more about it too, so let’s explain why we are sponsoring the Johnson Girls Racing team, and their cause.
Why We Are Sponsoring This Cause
Chad Fisher Construction is an industry leading commercial construction company. Our reputation amoung those we serve and the community at large will help bring attention to this worthy cause.
But it goes beyond that. Like JGR, Chad Fisher Construction is a family team. And, like the Johnson Girls, we know how important it is to do what we love, do it well, and what we believe in to acheive great things.
All About The Drivers
Racing is nothing new to the Johnson Girls. The drivers, sisters Ashleigh and Allison, are both in their early 20s yet have an amazing 19 and 11 years of racing experience, respectively! Whatever they achieve on the race track, their devotion to this cause makes them champions in our book.
Let’s take a closer look at these remarkable young women.
Ashleigh Anstensen
Ashleigh is one of Chad Fisher Construction’s own, a valued employee with a lifelong love of racing.
Although only 24 years old, this Ferndale High School graduate has accomplished much. She’s been racing since she was only 5 years old. She didn’t let it get in the way of pursuing her career dreams, though. After graduating high school, she studied Accounting at Western Washington University.
Allison Johnson
Allison Johnson, like her older sister, started racing young. She was 11 years old when the thrill of the race captivated her.
After graduating from Nooksack High School, she went on to Whatcom Community College. This talented 22-year-old is currently pursuing a career in teaching.
Let’s Raise Awareness!
In 2024 an estimated 313,510 people will be diagnosed with breast cancer in the U.S. and an estimated 2,790 of them will be men. If that took you by surprise, you’re not alone. Many people are unaware that breast cancer affects both women and men.
One of the men affected by breast cancer is Ashleigh and Allison’s father. The sisters are committed to supporting their dad in his brave battle against stage 4 breast cancer. They are also committed to creating more public awareness around this issue, in the best way they know how. On the racetrack, they can get the message out there to other families, just like theirs.
With Greater Awareness, We Can Win the Battle Against Cancer
Cancer doesn’t discriminate. It doesn’t care about your gender, age, or race, and it can happen to anyone at any time. That makes it a battle that everyone needs to fight. But with greater awareness, we can win the battle against cancer.
By sponsoring awareness campaigns like the Johnson Girls we hope to encourage everyone to learn more about this disease. Find out what you can do to reduce your risks and examine yourself for early signs. Support those who are already fighting the good fight. Together, we can beat cancer.
