North Texas Affiliate
Nancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister Susan G. Komen, that 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 a 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.
Working through a network of U.S. and international affiliates and events like the Komen Race for the Cure®, the Organization is fighting to end breast cancer forever by funding research grants, and supporting education, screening and treatment projects in communities around the world.
Founded in 1991 the North Texas Affiliate serves Collin, Denton and Grayson counties.
New name. New logo. Same vision. A world without breast cancer.
You may notice that we've changed our name - to Susan G. Komen for the Cure - and created a brand new logo to match. We hope you like the new look. Even more importantly, we want you to understand the motivation for this significant change.
Simply put, it's our anniversary. We're 25 this year, and we're shifting into another gear. With renewed urgency and inspiration. With an energized commitment to finally, once and for all, finish what we started.
