American Airlines Goes Pink for Breast Cancer
By: Jenna Taylor
Thousands of individuals work to raise awareness of a terrible disease during the month of October. October represents National Breast Cancer Awareness month and American Airlines is dedicated to helping with this cause. American Airlines has long been a supporter of a breast cancer and has been partners with Susan G. Komen for the Cure for many years.
American Airlines, American Eagle and Susan G. Komen for the Cure have partnered up this year and are having a "Pink-out" at airports across the country Oct. 1-15. The purpose of this “Pink Out” is to observe National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and raise funds to find the cure for breast cancer which all three organizations are very passionate about. The "Pink-out" will take place in 18 different cities that range from the East coast to the West coast. American Airlines and American Eagle employees will be wearing pink clothing in order to represent the cause. The employees will also be decorating the ticket counters, jetways, baggage claims and aircrafts in the color pink to raise awareness of breast cancer. American Airlines has been promoting the event through various resources and hopes that their customers will also take the initiative to wear pink as they travel any of the days during the two week “Pink Out”. All of these initiatives have been put into action in order to support the overall goal of American Airlines to raise $1 million for breast cancer research.
Not only will they be wearing pink clothing and decorating the building with the color pink, American Airlines will also be flying their eight pink-ribbon planes to Susan G. Komen events as a reminder of the devastating disease that affects so many women today.
In my opinion, this is a fun way for American Airlines and American Eagle employees and customers to support Komen for the Cure during National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The goal of this campaign is to develop a way to unite people and communities in the fight to end breast cancer. This campaign also increases the ability to promote the organizations that are involved with the cause and portray them in a positive light to the public. In this particular case study, women were mostly targeted because of their likelihood to relate to the issue of breast cancer. American Airlines and American Eagle had a good strategy of using eight pink-ribbon planes to act as a reminder to the community about the campaign. This campaign shows what a powerful role public relations can play in raising awareness of an important cause, such as breast cancer.
