Pink Kayaks Raise Money for Breast Cancer Research; Folbot Offers All Models in Pink Through End of October
Charleston, SC (PRWEB) September 25, 2008 -- Folbot, the leading American folding kayak manufacturer, is thinking pink. To help raise money to aid in the fight against breast cancer, all Folbot models are now available in pink -- and 10% of the price of any pink kayak sold will be donated to a national breast cancer research organization.
Co-owner and President David AvRutick explains, "As a company we feel it is important to do more than just make high quality kayaks and seek profits. We launched 'Paddle With A Purpose' to help support the fight against breast cancer, which affects so many people's lives. Our own wives, daughters, co-workers and friends were our inspiration for this initiative."
Visit the Paddle with a Purpose page (http://www.folbot.com/kayaks/paddle_with_purpose.html) to view all Folbot models in pink.
Folbot offers a full line of high quality, 100% U.S.-made folding kayaks. A Folbot kayak has several advantages over a rigid kayak: it is easy to store, can be checked as luggage on a plane or kept in the trunk of a car, and they are very stable and extremely quiet on the water. The Folbot line features eight models priced from $1,094 to $2,595, to meet a wide variety of paddlers' needs.
The company's newest kayak - the CitibMt - weighs only 24 lbs and fits in a backpack. Citibot has been most popular in urban markets, among paddlers with limited storage and with a growing number of people interested in stowing a kayak in their car - ready for spontaneous trips.
All Folbots come with a lifetime warranty and are sold online at Folbot (www.folbot.com) or by phone (800.533.5099). Folbot has a long history of rugged durability, and its kayaks are paddled worldwide.
