The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation was founded in 1982 on a promise made between two sisters; Nancy Brinker and her dying sister, Susan G. Komen. Twenty years later the Komen Foundation and its Affiliate Network are global leaders in the fight against breast cancer through their support of innovative research and community-based education, screening and treatment outreach programs. Today, we celebrate the power of a promise and how a single person's vision can make a difference in the lives of millions.
