Susan G. Komen

Susan G. Komen is a nonprofit committed to saving lives locally and fighting breast cancer globally. Komen Greater Central & East Texas is the only local breast cancer organization attacking the disease on all fronts - education, screening, treatment, follow-up care, survivorship support, advocacy and research. The organization serves the women and men in the city’s fifty eight-county area battling breast cancer by removing barriers to care for the uninsured and underinsured. We are also proud to note that for the past 15 years, Komen has averaged 78 cents or more of each dollar raised spent to pursue our mission.

Our mission here at Susan G. Komen is to save lives by meeting the most critical needs in our communities and investing in breakthrough research to prevent and cure breast cancer.
