Through programs like the Komen Race for the Cure Series and other fundraising and awareness events, Komen Affiliates raise tens of millions of dollars each year to help achieve the organization’s promise: To save lives and end breast cancer forever.

Each year, 75% of proceeds are awarded through a grant process to local non-profit organizations. Each grantee conducts a program that offers breast cancer education, screening or treatment to residents of Fresno County.

The remaining 25% is directed to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure National Grant Program to fund groundbreaking breast cancer research on a national and international level.
