Artifact Overview
Ford drew attention to breast cancer and the fight for a cure with this 2003 promotional item. Promotional materials usually emphasize only the company brand, but this item also highlighted the company's philanthropic ventures. Donors to "Race Fans for a Cure," which supported the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, received two NASCAR Ford Taurus race cars in a collectible tin.
