Auburn’s Raymond Handling Concepts Corporation (RHCC), a large material handling supplier in the Northwest, hosts its first Beat Breast Cancer rummage sale on Saturday, at its offices at 3500 W. Valley Highway N., Suite 101, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Supported by the employees and surrounding community, the rummage sale will have something for everyone, and proceeds will support The Tina Fund and the HERS Breast Cancer Foundation.

If you’re looking for furniture, sporting equipment, children’s toys, books, tools and other affordable items, the employees at RHCC invite you to shop the yard while enjoying a free barbecue lunch, ice cream and games for all ages.

The event serves as a precursor to RHCC’s annual Pink Pallet Jack Project, in which a customized pink pallet jack or electric walkie truck is auctioned off to the highest bidder, in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. The funds from the event are also donated to the Tina Fund and the HERS Breast Cancer Foundation, both organizations dedicated to fighting breast cancer.

“We have seen the lives of so many of our friends and family changed by cancer and knew we had to get involved,” said company president Steve Raymond. “RHCC has been blown away at the support we have received from employees and community members that see the need for action and don’t hesitate to join in our fight. We look forward to seeing our friends out this weekend to support these worthy causes.”

Raymond plans to be in attendance to share the history and vision for the company. If you are interested in donating items to the rummage sale, please contact RHCC at 253-333-2100 or send an email to info@raymondhandling.com.
