Save the Date to
Come Celebrate!
12th Annual Celebrate Life! Survivors’ Luncheon
Inspirations of Generations
Through events like the Komen Philadelphia Race for the Cure®,
the largest annual Komen Philadelphia Affiliate fundraiser, the
Affiliate is able to provide essential funding to community groups
and healthcare facilities to ensure that medically-underserved
people receive the breast health education, screening, treatment
and support they all need and deserve.
Up to 75 percent of net proceeds generated by the Affiliate stays
in our 13-county service area. The remaining income goes to the
national Susan G. Komen for the Cure Grants Program. For the
2007-2008 season, the Affiliate invested $2.35 million in the form
of grants to organizations for their local breast health and breast
cancer awareness projects in our service area.
The more we raise at the Race, the more people we can reach,
the more lives we can save.
and the Philadelphia Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure
invite you to join us in celebrating the life of our
breast cancer survivor family.
Together at the 12th Annual Celebrate Life!

WE THANK OUR HEALTHCARE SPONSORS
RACE FOR THE CURE. EMPOWER THE PROMISE.
Nancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, she
would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever.
In 1982, that promise became Susan G. Komen for the Cure and
launched the global breast cancer movement to save lives and
end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality
care for all and energizing science to find the cures.
When you Race for the Cure in Philadelphia, you renew that
promise to women here at home… and around the world.
When you Race for the Cure, you join more than 100,000 breast
cancer survivors and activists around the globe as part of the
world’s largest and most progressive grassroots network fighting
breast cancer.
When you Race for the Cure, you enable the Komen Philadelphia
Affiliate to invest millions of dollars in local breast health and
breast cancer awareness projects in our 13-county service area,
as well as offer innovative outreach programs for the AfricanAmerican, Latina, Asian-American, Korean, Jewish and Islamic
communities in need.
