Every October, communities across the country come together to raise awareness for breast cancer and support the ongoing fight against this disease. At MyPlace Self Storage, we are proud to play our part. For every rental completed during the month of October, we will donate $5 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

This initiative allows our customers and employees to take simple, everyday actions like renting a storage unit and turn them into meaningful contributions toward research, education, and support services.

Why Breast Cancer Awareness Matters

  • In the United States, 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime.
  • Over 297,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed this year.
  • Early detection can significantly improve survival rates, which is why awareness and funding are critical.

By supporting organizations like the National Breast Cancer Foundation, we help expand access to mammograms, patient support programs, and educational resources.

Turning Rentals Into Action

Every storage rental this October makes a direct impact. Whether you are moving, downsizing, or simply organizing your home, your decision to store with us will help fuel donations to this important cause.

Our storage options include:

By using self-storage to simplify your life, you are also helping us contribute to breast cancer awareness and research.

How Our Customers Can Join the Cause

  • Rent a storage unit in October, since every new rental generates a donation.
  • Share our campaign with friends and family who may need extra space this season.
  • Stay engaged by reading more about breast cancer facts and resources through the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Together, we can make a difference one rental at a time.

Final Thoughts

Storage has always been about more than just boxes and belongings. It is about supporting the moments and transitions that matter most in life. This October, we are proud to stand alongside our customers and communities to support breast cancer awareness and research.

If you have been considering storage, now is the perfect time to take action. Not only will you create space for what matters most, but you will also be helping to fight a disease that impacts millions of lives each year.
