Middle Atlantic Conference
Welcome to the Middle Atlantic Conference Breast Cancer Awareness Fundraiser Webpage!
Dear Friends and family,
We are delighted to have you here at our Breast Cancer Awareness Fundraiser webpage. Your presence on this digital platform signifies your commitment to making a positive impact in the fight against breast cancer. Together, we can amplify awareness, drive change, and support those affected by this challenging journey. We want to help Susan G. Komen save lives and end breast cancer forever. 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will be impacted by breast cancer in their lifetime, which is why we’ve created a tout every 2 minutes, one case of breast cancer is diagnosed in the U.S. and about every 46 seconds someone dies from breast cancer globally, making that about 1,876 women and men daily. Breast cancer is a global issue that affects millions of lives, and it's through collective action and compassionate hearts that we can make a difference.
Go Pink for the Cure is a fundraising program for Susan G. Komen that encourages healthy living and breast cancer awareness. Ending breast cancer NEEDS all of us. We want to empower our community and help end breast cancer together!
