Fulfilling the Promise, Finding the Cure

To fulfill our promise to end breast cancer forever, Susan G. Komen for the Cure aims to invest more than $1 billion over the next decade in breast health care and treatment for the underserved and in research to discover the causes of breast cancer and, ultimately, its cures.

Specifically, Komen for the Cure pledges to ...

  • INVEST more than $600 million in education and community health groups to ensure quality care for all and to help underserved women overcome the social, economic, cultural and language barriers to quality breast care and treatment.
  • INVEST more than $400 million in innovative breast cancer research, with the goal of answering the most urgent questions in the fight against this disease - what causes breast cancer, how can it be cured, and, ultimately, how can it be prevented?
  • MOBILIZE more than 10 million neighbors and friends - through events like the Komen Race for the Cure Series - to energize and empower a new generation of women and their families in the fight against breast cancer.
  • SAVE LIVES - our mothers, daughters, sisters and friends - through increased early detection and new treatments that spare future generations the pain of this disease.
