About Us

The Komen Northwest Louisiana Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® is dedicated to combating breast cancer at every front. Up to 75 percent of the Affiliate’s net income goes toward funding grants to local hospitals and community organizations that provide breast health education and breast cancer screening and treatment programs for medically underserved women. The remaining net income (a minimum of 25 percent) supports the national Komen Grants Program, which funds groundbreaking breast cancer research, meritorious awards and educational and scientific programs around the world.

The Komen Northwest Louisiana Affiliate’s services area covers all of Northwest Louisiana including ten parishes; Caddo, Bossier, Desoto, Natchitoches, Sabine, Webster, Wynn, Claiborne, Bienville, and Red River.  Thanks to the thousands of people who participant in the Susan G. Komen Northwest Louisiana Race for the Cure® and other Affiliate events each year, dedicated corporate partners and generous donors, Komen Northwest Louisiana is playing a vital role in fighting breast cancer in our community.

Our affiliate is proud to be a part of the Komen Affiliate network and work together with Komen Headquarters to make the biggest IMPACT in Northwest Louisiana. For more information on
