Komen Mid-Michigan Race for the Cure - Celebrating 10 Years!

The 10th Anniversary Komen Mid-Michigan Race for the Cure provides us with an incredible opportunity to make a big impact in our communities.

With your help, over the past 10 years, the Komen Mid-Michigan Affiliate has invested over $3 million in local breast health screening, education and survivorship programs.  Together, we are truly making a difference in the lives of Michigan women and families. One of these women, Shelley Tanner, asked that we share the following message.

“Thank you to the Race for the Cure sponsors, donors and participants who financially support the work of the Susan G. Komen Mid-Michigan Affiliate.  Without health insurance for the past five years, getting an annual mammogram was not financially possible.  Because of your generosity and compassion, I was able to receive a free mammogram.  While the mammogram did find that I had breast cancer, I am fortunate and happy to say that it was a very early stage.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart!” 

In order to continue to fund these life saving programs we NEED YOU! 

Think of the impact we could have if every participants asked 10 family, friends and co-workers to donate $10.  That $100 could provide a low cost mammogram to a woman who would not otherwise have access to this life saving technology. 

We call this the Power of 10!
