Susan G. Komen for the Cure was founded in 1982 on a promise made between two sisters – Nancy Goodman Brinker and her dying sister, Susan Goodman Komen. The Komen Foundation is now a global leader in the fight against breast cancer. It provides innovative breast cancer research grants and meritorious awards, and funds educational, scientific and community outreach programs around the world. The Central New Mexico Affiliate, established in 1999, has granted over $1M to local organizations for education, screening and treatment. $550,000 was sent to the Komen Foundation for research. We also offer breast cancer survivor support services for individuals.
