About Susan G. Komen® Austin One in eight women will have to fight breast cancer in her lifetime. That’s why, since 1999, Susan G. Komen has been hard at work here in the Austin area raising money to provide breast cancer screening, education and medical services as well as financial and emotional support. In fact, 75 percent of the money we raise each year is put to work right here in Travis, Hays, Williamson, Bastrop and Caldwell counties to improve the lives of everyone affected by this deadly disease. The remaining funds go to national research to better treatments and ultimately the cures for breast cancer. Learn more at: www.komenaustin.org
About Susan G. Komen® Nancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. In 1982 that promise became Susan G. Komen® and launched the global breast cancer movement. Today, Komen is the world’s largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures.
