Let's Go the Extra Mile for a Cure!
Komen New York City Race for the CureŽ
On Sunday, September 13, 2009, the Greater New York City Affiliate of
Susan G. Komen for the Cure held its 19th annual 5K run/walk
— the Komen New York City Race for the CureŽ — its premier
fundraiser.
On that day over 25,000 New Yorkers, including more than 1,600 breast
cancer survivors, came together to run breast cancer out of town.
One in eight women in the United States will be diagnosed with breast
cancer in her lifetime. In 2008, that was over 182,000 people. More
than 40,000 died.
Last year, the Komen NYC Race for the Cure raised over $5.7 million,
which allowed us to fund more than $3.9 million in grants to local
breast health education, screening and treatment programs and national
peer-reviewed research. Donations are tax deductible.
With your help, this year's Race for the CureŽ will be even more
successful, and Komen Greater NYC will be able to award more grants in
2010.
I need your support!
