Get Involved
Help us reach our vision of a world without breast cancer by getting involved in our local community.
Partner with Us
Support Susan G. Komen’s mission by joining local businesses, organizations, and community partners raising critical funds in support of Komen’s vision for a world without breast cancer.
Give from your Donor Advised Funds (DAF)
A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a tax-advantaged account where you can donate money or assets, receive an immediate tax deduction and invest tax-free. The funds grow over time, allowing you to make charitable gifts. Giving Tuesday is Dec. 3 – consider supporting people facing breast cancer through your DAF or encourage others with a DAF to support Komen. Make a gift from your DAF!
Go Pink for the Cure
When you organize a Go Pink for the Cure event, your school community’s passion and determination can help make a real difference in our mission to end breast cancer forever. Whether it’s a sports or school group, Pickleball for the Cure, Golf or Tennis, we have resources for all. Let’s get started! Learn more.
