Link-Belt Excavator Company hosted an event to honour individuals and organizations supporting breast cancer awareness. During the event, one hundred percent of the proceeds were donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation and Yes, Mamm! Program of Saint Joseph Health Foundation.
Pink-Belt, the 15.2-tonne Link-Belt 145 X4 excavator that travelled across the United States for the past year to support breast cancer awareness, was sold to Randy Gallegos of Rasmussen Equipment after being auctioned off at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026. The sale raised $220,000 for the cause. Additional fundraising efforts included a $2,000 contribution from Jade Shank and a $10,000 donation from Jay Shafer of Shafer Equipment Company.
"Breast cancer awareness and the search for a cure are causes that are deeply important to Rasmussen Equipment," said Gallegos. "We are proud to support LBX and its partners in helping fund programs that make a difference for individuals and families affected by breast cancer."
LBX extends its sincere gratitude to its dealer network and sponsors for hosting Pink-Belt during the Diggin' for a Cure Tour:
