FREMONT, Calif.--()--Raymond Handling Concepts Corporation (RHCC), a leading materials handling equipment supplier in Northern California and the Pacific Northwest, today announced the winning bids for its fifth annual Pink Pallet Jack Project online auction. A total of $9,470 was raised through two pallet jacks sold to J&K Trucking and Prism Logistics, as well as a $1k donation from Cascade. All proceeds raised from this year’s auction were shared between the Tina Fund in Greene, New York and HERS Breast Cancer Foundation in Fremont, California.

RHCC would like to personally thank John Souza of J&K Trucking, who has continued to support Raymond Handling’s fundraising efforts by placing the winning bid for a lift truck every single year the auction has taken place. Because of his generosity, the annual charity auction has now raised almost $150,000 for breast cancer charities doing amazing things in their communities.

“We have really enjoyed participating with Raymond Handling’s annual Pink Pallet Jack Project for breast cancer awareness, and are even more proud that we have won this auction for five consecutive years,” said John Souza, owner at J&K Trucking. “We are grateful for this opportunity to help two very important charities that diligently seek a cure and support women and families affected by breast cancer.”

“Raymond Handling has established a legacy with five years of pink pallet jack auctions, because we know how important awareness is in today’s world where far too many people are touched by the sting of breast cancer,” said James Wilcox, president of RHCC. “With this year’s overwhelming support, we are proud of the almost $150,000 we have raised with the Pink Pallet Jack Project and are grateful to our founder, Steve Raymond for his commitment to the cure.”
