bout the Austin Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure

The Austin Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure -- along with those who generously support us with their talent, time and resources -- is working to better the lives of those facing breast cancer in our community. We join more than 100,000 breast cancer survivors and activists around the globe as part of the world's largest and most progressive grassroots network fighting breast cancer. Through events like the Komen Austin Race for the Cure, we have invested $3,338,108 since 1999 in local breast health and breast cancer awareness programs in Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis and Williamson counties. Up to 75 percent of net proceeds generated by the Komen Austin Affiliate stay in Central Texas while the remaining income goes to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Grants Program supporting research, awards and educational and scientific programs around the world. Komen Austin will be celebrating its 10 year anniversary in 2007. Join us by calling (512) 473-0900 or visiting us online at http://www.komenaustin.org

About Susan G. Komen for the Cure

Nancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. In 1982, that promise became Susan G. Komen for the Cure and launched the global breast cancer movement. Today, Komen for the Cure is the world's largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. Thanks to events like the Komen Race for the Cure, we have invested nearly $1 billion to fulfill our promise, becoming the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world.
