Can you imagine a world without breast cancer? It's hard, given how pervasive the disease is. But go ahead, let yourself envision that world. Because it's not a fantasy. It's a reality within our grasp. Each step I take on the Breast Cancer 3-Day brings us closer to ending the disease forever.

Eighty-five percent of the net proceeds of this event go to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Every advancement in breast cancer research, treatment, education and prevention in the last 25 years has been touched by a Komen for the Cure grant. The remaining fifteen percent of net funds goes to the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund, which provides ongoing support to breast cancer initiatives, so that strides made today can continue to propel us toward our goal.

Breast Cancer Facts
  • One in eight women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime.
  • Breast cancer knows no boundaries – be it age, gender, socio-economic status or geographic location.
  • The greatest risk factors for breast cancer are being female and growing older.
  • Early detection and effective treatment for breast cancer have been shown to improve survival.
  • Making healthy lifestyle choices may reduce the risk of breast cancer.
  • There are 2.5 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S. today.
  • Breast cancer affects more than just the patient – co-survivors (friends, family and co-workers) need support, too.
Everyone has been touched in some way by breast cancer. And recoiled from the touch. No family should lose a mother prematurely, or a dear friend, sister, wife, daughter, or co-worker. No one just diagnosed, should have to look at the mirror in the morning and say: Will I survive? Everyone deserves a lifetime: we feel it deep in our bones.
