The North Carolina Triad 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 NC Triad Race for the Cure, we have invested $2.5 million in local breast health and breast cancer awareness projects in the 10-County Triad region. Our service area includes Alamance, Davidson, Davie, Forsyth, Guilford, Randolph, Stokes, Surry, Wilkes and Yadkin Counties. Up to 75 percent of net proceeds generated by the Komen NC Triad Affiliate stay in the Triad. The remaining income goes to the national Susan G. Komen for the Cure Grants Program for energizing science to find the cures. Join us by calling 336-721-0037 or visiting us online at komennctriad.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.
