PAINT FOR PINK - TURNS THAT MATTER
More Than Awareness
This October, Hokr Painting is turning the work we do every day into meaningful support for
triple-negative breast cancer research and the people affected by this disease.
For every apartment turn we paint during the month of October, Hokr Painting will donate $5 to the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation.
WHY WE'RE PAINTING FOR PINK
A message from Linda Cota, Co-Owner of Hokr Painting
Breast Cancer Awareness Month has a different meaning for me now.
In 2024, I was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer, and went through months of treatments - an experience that changed my perspective in more ways than I can put into words.
Today, I’m incredibly grateful to be on the other side of active treatment, and I’ve thought a lot about how I wanted Hokr Painting to recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There’s already a lot of pink in October. I didn't want us to simply wear pink or talk about raising awareness. I wanted us to do something tangible. For the women facing this disease today, awareness isn't enough. We need continued research, better treatments, support—and action.
Triple-negative breast cancer has been part of my story, so supporting an organization dedicated specifically to this disease felt like the right place for us to make an impact.
That's how Paint for Pink: Turns That Matter began.
TURNS THAT MATTER
Apartment turns are at the heart of what we do at Hokr Painting. During a busy month, our painters may complete hundreds of them throughout the Twin Cities. So this October, we're making every one count for something more.
$5 DONATED FOR EVERY OCTOBER TURN
For every apartment turn Hokr Painting completes from October 1–31, we'll donate $5 to the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation.
$2,500 MINIMUM COMMITMENT
No matter how many turns we complete, Hokr Painting is committed to donating at least $2,500.
ONE SHARED PURPOSE
Our painters and office team will be wearing our Paint for Pink shirts and hats throughout October as a reminder of the people behind this disease - those currently in treatment, survivors, families, caregivers, researchers and everyone working toward better outcomes.
Every turn makes a difference.
YOUR TURNS ARE PART OF THE IMPACT
If you're a Hokr Painting multi-housing customer, your October turns automatically count.
Every apartment turn you entrust to Hokr during October adds $5 to our Paint for Pink contribution at no additional cost to you.
Want to make your turns go even further? Consider matching Hokr's $5-per-turn contribution for your properties or making a donation directly to the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation.
Together, we can turn everyday work into meaningful action.
TURN AWARENESS INTO ACTION
Hokr Painting is proud to support the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation, an organization dedicated to advancing TNBC research and providing resources and support to the triple-negative breast cancer community.
Hokr will make our Paint for Pink donation at the conclusion of October. If you'd like to make an additional impact, we invite you to support the TNBC Foundation directly.
