A brand to trust — We are honored that Susan G. Komen for the Cure® ranked number one in a recent Harris Interactive poll as the most valued non-profit brand and the charity people are most likely to donate money to. Additionally, Komen for the Cure ranked second on the 2010 list of the nation’s most trusted charities. Thank you to all who help us daily in the fight to end breast cancer!
At Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, we make every penny count:
Ensuring Quality Care for all - 75% of the net proceeds stay in central and northern Arizona to fund programs that focus on screening, education, and treatment.
Energizing Science to find the cures - 25% supports the national Susan G. Komen for the Cure Award and Research Grant Program. We have supported virtually every major advance in breast cancer research over the past 25 years. Through Susan G. Komen for the Cure research grant funds, Arizona has seen research monies returned back to our community through grants to Translational Genomics, Mayo Clinic and the University of Arizona Cancer Center. The Phoenix affiliate has contributed over $4 million towards national research since our inception.
Our Impact - Since 1993, we have invested over $14 million in local grants to agencies in our central and northern Arizona communities. In 2008 alone, $1.7 million went to 28 local organizations that provide mammograms, treatment and breast cancer prevention and education information, such as Mission of Mercy, Banner Desert Cancer Center, Ak-Chin Indian Community and John C. Lincoln.
It may be your donation that pushes us past a major turning point in discovering and delivering the cures. On behalf of the women who will be diagnosed this year, next year and in the decade ahead, we urge you to do as much as you can as soon as you can. You can rest assured we'll put your contribution to good use.
Just as each of us gives for a different reason, there are many different ways to give. Komen recognizes that each donor has a unique story and unique needs, and our various giving programs reflect that.
Join us in the promise and become part of the fight against breast cancer by making a one-time or recurring contribution of $25, $50, $100 or another value that is meaningful to you. Gifts can also be made in honor of an individual or special occasion or in memory of a loved one or friend. Please begin today by making a donation toward a tomorrow free from breast cancer.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure launched the Circle of Promise campaign to engage African-Americans in its mission to end breast cancer forever by fostering increased awareness, support, empowerment and action. African-American women have the highest death rate and poorest survival rate of any other racial or ethnic group for breast cancer. In an effort to rewrite the story of African American women and breast cancer, Komen has pledged to decrease the mortality of African-Americans from breast cancer by increasing awareness of the risk of breast cancer, reducing pervasive myths in the community, encouraging breast self awareness leading to early detection and treatment and mobilizing the community to collectively fight for access to quality care for all.
