Cross is pleased to support the exemplary work of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, a global leader in the fight against breast cancer through its programs here and overseas. The Komen Foundation was established in 1982 by Nancy G. Brinker to honor the memory of her sister, Susan G. Komen, who died from breast cancer at the age of 36. Today, the Komen Foundation is an international organization with a network of more than 75,000 volunteers working through local Affiliates and events like the Komen Race for the Cure ® to eradicate breast cancer as a life-threatening disease. The Foundation fulfills its mission through the support of innovative breast cancer research grants, meritorious awards and educational, scientific, and community outreach programs.
