Where the money goes

Up to 75 percent of the funds you donate remain here in San Diego County to cover every step of the breast health journey – from education, outreach, mammograms and diagnostics, to surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation and material and financial support like meals, mortgage payments, support for children, prosthetics and wigs.  The remaining 25 percent of each dollar donated funds national research to discover the causes of breast cancer, and ultimately, its cures.  In fact, next to the U.S. Government, Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the largest funder of breast cancer research in the world.
