The Impact of Susan G. Komen's Fight Against Breast Cancer

The Susan G. Komen Foundation, since its inception in 1982, has played a critical role in breast cancer awareness and research. Starting with Nancy Brinker's promise to her sister, Susan G. Komen, the foundation has raised millions, dramatically improving cancer mortality rates and changing lives. With advancements reducing the need for chemotherapy for many, the foundation continues to lead with remarkable breakthroughs in treatment and research. The ongoing efforts reflect a powerful commitment to not only treat but ultimately cure breast cancer, supported by a widespread community including survivors, researchers, and advocates.
