Support
the Cause...
There are many
different ways to support the Hawaii Affiliate of Susan
G. Komen for the Cure® and the fight to eradicate
breast cancer.
For
the past 15 years, the Hawaii Affiliate has enjoyed increasing
support.
In the community we've created - together, to survive
- some are volunteers, some are participants, and some are sponsors...
but all are equally important. We, and the women across the nation
who are winning the fight against breast cancer, thank you for your
generosity and are proud to have you on our team.
Where Your Money Goes...
Every year, 75% of the money raised by the Hawaii Affliate stays right here
in our community for education and treatment. Although the remaining 25%
goes towards national research, a good portion of it re-enters our community
via Komen Award and Research Grants to area hospitals. Click
here for information on our current grant recipients
or for a grant application.
