Curing Breast Cancer - at Every State

At Susan G. Komen for the Cure, we know that ending breast cancer is about more than curing a medical condition – it’s about overcoming the cultural, social and financial conditions that prevent women from receiving life-saving breast health care and treatment.

At Komen for the Cure, our promise is our mission – ending breast cancer forever by:

  • Empowering people to take charge of their health care through awareness and early detection and, if diagnosed, to survive.
  • Ensuring quality of care for all, regardless of race, ethnic background, language, income or insurance status.
  • Energizing science to find the causes and cures of breast cancer – and, ultimately, to prevent breast cancer in the first place.

Our Promise:
To save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all, and energizing science to find the cures.
