EMCOR Human Pink Hard Hat 2011 ribbon formations, EMCOR’s “signature” event, involve participation by a number of clients at their locations, including:

• Yale Cancer Center, New Haven, Connecticut
• Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland
• Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM), Southport, North Carolina
• HealthOne Rose Medical Center, Denver, Colorado
• Porter Health System, Highland, Indiana
• University of Arizona College of Medicine, Phoenix, Arizona

A compelling, colorful start to, and support of, Breast Cancer Awareness month, these month-long commemorations will kick-off with a public event on October 3 at Yale Cancer Center and Yale School of Medicine. Each event will include conversations among a breast cancer survivor/spokesperson, EMCOR Pink Hard Hat-wearing construction workers, and local EMCOR subsidiary CEO.
