It will happen.  How quickly is up to you.  

It is a race against time, with the lives of our mothers, sisters, daughters and friends hanging in the balance.  Each year 1.1 million women worldwide are diagnosed with breast cancer, and 410,000 die from the disease.  Imagine being able to stop the breast cancer disease and its tragic consequences.

At NC Triad Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, 75% of net proceeds raised remain in our 11-county service area to fund mammograms, screenings and treatment, and education to the underserved and underprivileged in Alamance, Davidson, Davie, Forsyth, Guilford, Randolph, Rockingham, Stokes, Surry, Wilkes, and Yadkin Counties.  The remaining 25% goes to our National Organization for the funding of research for finding the cures.

At Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, we make every penny count.  In fact, 85 cents of every dollar spent goes toward our treating and curing breast cancer.  It may be your donation that pushes us past a major turning point in discovering and delivering the cures.  On behalf of the women who will be diagnosed this year, next year and in the decade ahead, we urge you to do as much as you can as soon as you can.  You can rest assured we'll put your contribution to good use.

We've have done it again!  Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, global leader in the breast cancer movement, has received Charity Navigator's highest rating -- four stars -- for the fourth consecutive year!  With this rating, Komen for the Cure® becomes one of only 9 percent of the approximately 5,400 charities that Charity Navigator evaluates which has received at least four straight 4-start ratings. 

"Achieving Charity Navigator's highest rating for fiscal soundness is an incredible achievement for even one year during these economic times," said Ambassador Nancy G. Brinker, Komen's founder and CEO.  "But to garner this rating four consecutive years is a true testatament to the hard work of our entire Susan G. Komen for the Cure® family.  My gratitude also goes out to our Affiliates, our volunteers, and our staff, who have proven, once again, to be responsible stewards of our contributors' money as everyone continues to try to fulfill our promise of saving lives and ending breast cancer forever."  

Komen for the Cure®, which raised more than $347 million in revenue for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2009, received a 63.34 rating from Charity Navigator, equaling its 2008 four-star rating from the leading charity evaluator in the U.S.
