Local Heating and Air Conditioning Company Lends Support to Hudson Valley Breast Cancer Patients

NEWBURGH, NY, July 01, 2011 (Press-News.org) Ed Wolfe, managing director, Go Green Express Home Services, announced today that the third stop of the "Go Green Local" will be Breast Cancer Options, serving five counties throughout the Hudson Valley region.

Go Green Local is the community assistance arm of Go Green Express Home Services that makes "whistle stops" throughout the region, spreading some much-needed green wherever it goes. "I don't think there's anyone in our region who doesn't know someone who has been affected by breast cancer," remarks Mr. Wolfe. "That's why it is our profound pleasure to assist this important cause," he says.

The donation of $500, will help the 15-year-old group continue its mission of providing education, advocacy, and services to women affected by breast cancer, including a camp for children whose mothers are undergoing treatment. "We believe environmental factors contribute to breast cancer, and we deeply appreciate that Go Green Express helps families live in healthier surroundings and that the company will be assisting us with a generous donation," remarks Hope Nemiroff, executive director of Breast Cancer Options. "The contribution is especially important in today's economy when so many funding sources have been forced to cut back, or cut out, their support," she adds.

Go Green Express Home Services is focused on eco-friendly home heating, cooling, and plumbing technologies that conserve energy and reduce energy bills. Through cost efficient repair and replacement solutions, the company helps customers live in healthier, eco-friendly home environments. Their Shades of Green Program enables customers to "go green" gradually. "Many people can't make significant changes all at once. We help them do it at a pace that is comfortable and affordable to them," Wolfe says. The Go Green Local Community Assistance Program" is another way we're helping to build a better community - one stop at a time," he adds.

Nominations for not-for-profits to receive a Whistle Stop on the Go Green Local can be made at the Go Green Express Home Services website, www.ggehs.com/GoGreenLocal or through Facebook. Each month, a not-for-profit will be chosen.
