Racine, Wis., Nov. 24, 2014

Wintec Building Services​ of Winnipeg, Manitoba, recently purchased a pink CASE Construction Equipment​ 621F wheel loader​. The loader, the first of its kind to be produced by CASE’s Fargo, N.D., plant, will primarily be used to help with the snow removal of the city’s roads.

10 percent of the profits generated from the custom-ordered loader will be contributed to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation - Prairies/NWT​ region. The website where people can make a donation, https://www.wintec.ca ​, will also be displayed on the machine.

The idea for the loader started when Doug Huselak, general manager of Wintec, lost his aunt to breast cancer. He decided to approach the Foundation about participating in a larger-than-usual donation.

Huselak and the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation worked together to come up with the idea for the bright pink loader.

In order to move forward with their plan, Wintec worked with their local dealer, Hitrac​. Paul Scharf, president of Hitrac, thought it was a great idea and helped get the process moving with the manufacturer.

Along with the bright pink paint job, the loader is also covered in decals from the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.
