Your gift could provide a one month supply of Tamoxifen, a drug used to treat breast cancers that rely on estrogen for growth, to a patient in need. Every 60 seconds, somewhere in the world, someone dies from breast cancer. Your gift will help save lives! Your gift could provide a screening mammogram to an uninsured or underinsured person in need. Your gift could provide a breast prosthesis for an uninsured or underinsured woman in need. Your gift will help us reach our bold goal to reduce the current number of breast cancer deaths by 50% in the U.S. within the next decade!

My Story

 

This year, I joined the ONE Komen community and registered for the Susan G. Komen RACE FOR THE CURE.  I have been dedicated to Komen's ONE mission of ending breast cancer forever for more than 20 years, and I need your help. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today in support of my fundraising efforts.

I dedicate this race to my mother, Velma and my friend Lynn, who both lost their battle to this disease, to my sisters Gayle and Karen, and friend and walking buddy Melony who have fought the battle and WON!

Your support helps us get ONE step closer to a world without breast cancer. Funds raised help support breakthrough research and provide assistance to those facing breast cancer today who need our support.  Whether it’s emotional support via Komen’s helpline, financial support through Komen’s treatment assistance program, or help navigating their care journey, Komen will be there for them.

In moments like this, your generosity can make a real difference. Together, let’s show breast cancer patients there’s a whole community standing by their side.

Will you please join me in this fight by making a donation today?
