Our Vision
A World Without Breast Cancer.

Our Promise
The Susan G. Komen for the Cure® promise: to save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing
science to find the cures.

Our Passion
Because 10 million women and men  around the world could die from breast cancer in the next 25 years without a cure, Susan G. Komen for the Cure® is fighting every minute of every day to save every life.

Our People
The more than 100,000 survivors and activists of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® are the face and voice of the global breast cancer movement – local activists and global citizens who mobilize millions through events like the Komen Race for the Cure Series, the world’s largest and most successful education and fundraising event for breast cancer.

Our Work
With nearly $1 billion invested to date, Susan G. Komen for the Cure® is the world’s largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to curing breast cancer at every stage – from the causes, to the cures, to the pain and anxiety of every moment in between.

Our Success
Susan G. Komen for the Cure® has played a critical role in every major advance in the fight against breast cancer over the past 25 years – transforming how the world talks about and treats this disease, and helping to turn millions of breast cancer patients into breast cancer survivors.

 More Early Detection – nearly 75 percent of women over 40 years old now receive regular mammograms, the single most effective tool for detecting breast cancer early.

More Hope – the five-year survival rate for breast cancer, when caught early before it spreads beyond the breast, is now 98 percent.

More Research – the federal government now devotes more than $900 million each year to breast cancer research, treatment and prevention.

More Survivors – America’s 2.3 million breast cancer survivors, the largest group of cancer survivors in the U.S., are a living testament to the power of society and science to save lives.
