What is the Susan G. Komen Global Race for the Cure™?

The Komen Global Race for the Cure is an annual run/walk event in Washington, D.C. that raises funds and awareness for the fight against breast cancer, celebrates survivorship, and honors those who have lost their battle. The heart of this event is you, its participants—and we need your help to make the biggest impact possible against this disease.

How can I get involved?

It's so easy! Grab all your friends and family—especially your mom because the Race is on the Saturday of Mother's Day weekend—and get registered. You can run or walk the 5k route, or even “sleep-in” or volunteer. Don't forget to register the kids too, so they can participate in their own special race. The Komen Global Race is fun for the whole family!
