The annual Orange County Race for the Cure will be held at Fashion Island, Newport Beach on Sunday September 25, 2016. This incredible community event attracts 20,000 people and raises $2 million for breast health programs and breast cancer research.
Have you ever wanted to get behind the scenes at a world scale race event and work alongside the team that make it all happen? If so - this is your chance! We need to move 20,000 people in and out of the event site safely and seamlessly on Race day and need your help to do it!
Volunteers will control and direct participants in and out of the event site parking areas, and assist them accessing the shuttle buses that are provided on the day. They will also assist with traffic flow in and out of the areas they oversee.
Volunteers must be aged 18 and over unless supervised by a parent/guardian who is also volunteering. In this case volunteers may be aged 15 and over (ratio 1 adult per minor).
Volunteers must be able to remain on their feet for prolonged periods, be friendly and personable, be confident and able to give clear directions/instructions and be ready to help in all areas as required on the day. They need to be able to stay for the whole shift.
Volunteers must arrive at 4.30am and stay until approximately 11am.
All volunteers must sign up on our website to volunteer. After you have signed up you will receive more information about Race day, parking, check-in etc.

Mission Statement
Our promise is to save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find the cures.
Description
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. Today, Komen for the Cure is the world's largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. Thanks to events like the Race for the Cure, we have invested nearly $1 billion to fulfill our promise, becoming the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world. The Komen Orange County Affiliate has been making strides in our community since 1991. The Affiliate is proud to have raised nearly $15 million on behalf of the Komen promise.
