SUSAN G. KOMEN 2006 CORPORATE PARTNERS
Komen Race for the Cure®
This year, the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation celebrates the 23rd Anniversary of the Komen Race for the Cure®, the largest series of 5K runs/fitness walks in the world. The first event of its kind,
the Komen Race for the Cure® was created in 1983 by Nancy Brinker, who established the Komen Foundation to honor the memory
of her sister, Susan G. Komen, who died from breast cancer at the age of 36. In almost 25 years, the Komen Race for the Cure®
has grown from one local Race with 800 participants in Dallas, Texas, to a series of more than 100 Races with more than one
million participants anticipated in 2006. Today, the Komen Race for the Cure® Series raises significant funds and awareness
for the fight against breast cancer, celebrates breast cancer survivorship and honors those who have lost their battle with
the disease. Visit www.komen.org to find a Komen Race event in your community.
2006 Komen Sing for the Cure®
Sing for the Cure® is a musical journey through the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. It is told through
the personal experiences of breast cancer survivors, their partners and loved ones. Librettist Pamela Martin interviewed
scores of people whose unique stories comprise the narration and lyrics for 10 songs set to the music of 10 composers, each
of whom has been touched by breast cancer in some way. The song cycle is arranged for mixed chorus and orchestra, chamber
ensemble or piano. Its effect is universal: both performers and audience members alike experience the pain of facing death
and the hope of life that is so real for all who make the journey. Promoting public awareness of breast cancer detection,
treatment and research is the Foundation’s foremost priority, and Sing for the Cure® collaborations present
exciting opportunities to meet this goal by reaching new audiences from coast to coast. For more information, visit www.singforthecure.com.
