Susan G. Komen fought breast cancer with her heart, body and soul. Throughout her diagnosis, treatments, and endless days in the hospital, she spent her time thinking of ways to make life better for other women battling breast cancer instead of worrying about her own situation. That concern for others continued even as Susan neared the end of her fight. Moved by Susans compassion for others and committed to making a difference, Nancy G. Brinker promised her sister that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever.
That promise is now Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, the global leader of the breast cancer movement, having invested more than $1 billion since inception in 1982. As the worlds largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists, were working together to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. Thanks to events like the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure®, and generous contributions from our partners, sponsors and fellow supporters, we have become the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world.

Why has breast cancer rates risen so high? could it be the synthetic estrogen in plastics? could it be all the nuclear testings done in the 50's? could it be Bisphenol A in just about everything including our money? why do "not" the primitives in secluded islands and jungles suffer from breast cancers like our culture dose? my opinion and it's an educated one is we are under chemical attack it may or may not be by design but the fact is we are dieing and this need not be!
