Welcome to the More Than Pink Walk

Susan G. Komen’s MORE THAN PINK Walk™ is our commitment to go beyond breast cancer awareness and take ACTION.

As our signature fundraising event, the MORE THAN PINK Walk™ is where we put aside everything else in our lives to share our stories, our laughter and our tears; to raise money to saves lives.

This inspiring family-friendly event joins participants of all ages and abilities, coming together as one, and remembering those we’ve lost, celebrating those that have survived, honoring those currently living with the disease and uniting as a community.

Together we are more than one person dealing with this devastating disease, we are a COMMUNITY fighting back, do more for RESEARCH and provide more CARE for those among us who are living with breast cancer – including metastatic breast cancer.

Your partnership is a solid commitment, not only in the well-being of the people in your community, but also in those close to you. Breast cancer in some way touches the lives of your colleagues, friends, neighbors and/or family members.

We’re all in. Join us.


YOUR FUNDRAISING IS HELPING US SAVE LIVES EVERY DAY

Introducing Our Core Pillars

Research• Our fundraising enables investments for new research discoveries and treatment options

that could impact countless lives.• Innovative clinical trials and lifesaving research are critical to finding the cures needed to

end breast cancer forever.• Research is the key to helping those with breast cancer live better lives, longer, alleviating

the suffering of those with the disease, and one day, creating a world without breast cancer.

Care• Every person fighting breast cancer deserves affordable, high-quality care. • Everyone deserves more time with their loved ones. • Ensuring that breast cancer patients get high-quality care means they’ll spend less time in a

hospital and more time with the ones they love.• Care that ensures all people have access to quality screening, diagnosis and treatment

for breast cancer. Offering patient support, treatment assistance, even childcare and transportation services.

Community• You are not alone. This community is here to support you every step of your journey through

breast cancer.• The MORE THAN PINK WALK™ provides a time to share, grieve, support and find the

strength to move forward.• Everyone in this community – survivors and those living with breast cancer, along with the

people who love them - all have a unique and important story of strength and resilience to share.

• On walk day, you become part of a family you never knew you had.

Action• Our fundraising educates and persuades policymakers about the importance of our mission

and fights for patient rights.• We advocate for government funding of critical patient support in every community across

the nation.• We empower advocates with education, resources and opportunities to make their voices

heard, and champion patient rights.• We empower people with fact-based information and guidance so they can make informed

breast cancer decisions and take control of their care.


Despite advances in detection and treatment, breastcancer continues to affect thousands of people each year.Consider this data from the state of Florida alone when it comes to breast cancer statistics:• 19,130 women will be diagnosed with breast

cancer in Florida this year• 3000 women will die from breast cancer in Florida

this year

Message from a Top Fundraising Team Captain

The Komen Foundation is more than a fundraising, research and advocacy organization for breast cancer awareness. It is a family circle of support when families need to know that they are not alone on the journey of survival together.

I fundraise and support the Komen Foundation to ensure that we not only have this sustainable support, but to also ensure that communities of color, who are at times disproportionately impacted, have access to similar resources and a base of support.

Breast cancer does not discriminate. Therefore, we cannot afford to have any inequities in how we support those families who may be impacted. The Komen Foundation has afforded our family the opportunity to use the power of our music, culture, and heritage to highlight the work of what we do for each other.
