New Yorkers Help Duane Reade Increase Support of the 19th Annual Komen New York City Race For The Cure(R)
Date:9/11/2009

City. "Breast cancer never takes a holiday and we need to do more than ever right now to support our community. We appreciate Duane Reade's commitment to helping us run breast cancer out of town this year. The Company's pinup program will allow us to fund even more local breast health education, screening and treatment programs next year, which is so necessary in light of budget cuts to the State's Cancer Services Program."

The 19th annual Komen New York City Race for The Cure will be held on Sunday, September 13th in Central Park at 9:00 a.m. The event is the signature fundraiser for Komen Greater New York City. Race registration is open at www.komennyc.org.

The Duane Reade Charitable Foundation was formed in March 2007 and is committed to supporting charitable organizations that promote health and wellness in New York's communities.

A portion of the budget is also reserved to support programs that address local community needs.
