How Your Support Changes Lives
When you donate to Susan G. Komen, you might wonder where your dollars go. With every donation, they embark on a powerful journey, one that brings hope where there is uncertainty, comfort where there is fear and progress where there is urgent need. That single dollar could become the research breakthrough that leads to a lifesaving treatment. From a call to the Patient Care Center at just the right moment, financial help that aids a patient in getting to chemotherapy or advocating for state and federal policy change to ensure all people have affordable access to the care they need. Every dollar carries the weight of possibility.

What does your donation really do? It fuels impact.

Watch the Impact
Your generosity can drive research, provide assistance and make a tangible difference in the lives of those impacted by breast cancer. Watch the video below to see how your donation creates change, one dollar at a time.
Every contribution, no matter the amount, moves us closer to a world without breast cancer. From your hands to the hands of those impacted by breast cancer, the power of progress and the promise of hope are possible.
This year, nearly 43,000 women and men are expected to die from breast cancer in the U.S. alone. Komen’s work is driven by two strategic imperatives that will help us achieve our mission: Conquer aggressive and deadly breast cancers to help people live longer, better lives and ensure all people get the care they need and achieve health equity.
With your help, we have no doubt we can get there.
