Who are you running for? — Join in the fight against breast cancer by running a full or half marathon through Marathon for the Cure™
Rally for the Cure — Golf, tennis, dinner events and so much more...
A brand to trust — We are honored that Susan G. Komen for the Cure® ranked number one in a recent Harris Interactive poll as the most valued non-profit brand and the charity people are most likely to donate money to. Additionally, Komen for the Cure ranked second on the 2010 list of the nation’s most trusted charities. Thank you to all who help us daily in the fight to end breast cancer!

Our objective is to provide maximum return to support our mission of saving lives and ending breast cancer through education, screening and research. 75% of all funds raised, through our Race and other events, are spent on our Affiliate's mission. Just from our Races alone, the Komen Virginia Blue Ridge Affiliate has granted over half a million dollars to local organizations supporting our mission. And the 2012 Race for the Cure will be our third Race, so just imagine what we will do!
Up to 75% of the net proceeds fund local breast cancer programs and at least 25% supports the national Susan G. Komen for the Cure Grants Program to fund research. Thousands of Virginia women and men who could not afford breast healthcare have received screenings, education and treatments as a result of funds raised through the Komen Virginia Blue Ridge Race for the Cure® each year.
