Ben Franklin Transit is transforming its Pink Bus and Dial-A-Ride into a rolling tribute to local breast cancer survivors – and organizers are asking survivors to submit their names to be displayed on the vehicles. 

The campaign, “Driven by Hope” aims to collect 1,000 printed names from survivors across the community. Each name displayed will represent a personal journey and a story of courage, organizers said. 

BFT plans to debut the bus in October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 

Participation is simple. Survivors can print their name on a release form or on a plain piece of paper using a black pen, photograph it with a cellphone and email the image along with the completed release form to [email protected]. 

Once complete, the buses will travel throughout the community carrying the names as a public message of awareness, support and hope. 

The release form and full instructions are available at bft.org/pink.
