Six storage facilities located across the U.S. will join Kure It in raising critical funds for cancer research by implementing the Store For The Kure and Round Up For Research programs. These facilities include: Rivergate Self Storage in Murfreesboro, TN; Storage Solutions in Corinth, TX; Budget Self Storage in Lancaster, CA; Budget Self Storage in Palmdale, CA; AC Self Storage in Dallas, TX; and American International Self Storage in North Miami Beach, FL. In the Store for the Kure program, operators contribute a recommended $.50 per month for each occupied unit. Round up for Research invites tenants to round up their rent to the next dollar, or an amount of their choice, to be included in their payment as a recurring donation. Since Kure It began partnering with the self storage industry in 2009, facilities owned and operated by companies such as US Storage Centers, HB Storage Investments, and Golden State Storage have participated in one or both of the programs. Their participation has raised over $225,000 for Kure It. Karen Jones, Director of Kure It said, “With the participation of the new locations, we look forward to increasing the impact we can make for cancer research. The Storage Industry generously supports Kure It, and we appreciate the leadership of those companies that see the vision of what they can do to end cancer.” In addition to implementing Round Up For Research and Store For the Kure, the six facilities have chosen Kure It as their charity for the new Charity Storage program. Troy Downing, CEO of AC Self Storage Solutions, LLC and owner of the Rivergate, Corinth and Dallas locations, stated, “With the rollout of Charity Storage, I wanted to take advantage of this simple way for my properties to get involved with Kure It. It’s a great cause, and I hope others will join me in supporting research for underfunded cancers.” About Kure It Kure It is a non-profit organization whose mission is to raise money for research specialists conducting innovative projects to better treat and ultimately cure kidney and other underfunded cancers.
