National Spotlight

Who are you running for? — Join in the fight against breast cancer by running a full or half marathon through Marathon for the Cure™

Rally for the Cure — Golf, tennis, dinner events and so much more...

A brand to trust — We are honored that Susan G. Komen for the Cure® ranked number one in a recent Harris Interactive poll as the most valued non-profit brand and the charity people are most likely to donate money to. Additionally, Komen for the Cure ranked second on the 2010 list of the nation’s most trusted charities. Thank you to all who help us daily in the fight to end breast cancer!

Fundraise

If you want to make an impact in your community, REGISTERING is just your FIRST STEP. The SECOND and most crucial step is FUNDRAISING. This year the Komen North Jersey Affiliate has set our participant fundraising goal at $1,000,000 and we need your help to get there. If every participant raised $133.00 we would be able to fund much needed research, education, and outreach programs in our community.

 It is important to point out that 75% of the net proceeds raised by the Race will be granted out in our local community. The remaining 25% of the proceeds will help fund national research grants. What that really means is 100% of the net proceeds go straight to mission. Every dollar we raise is used to help save lives.

This year you not only get to help our Affiliate make a bigger difference, you also get the opportunity to earn cool fundraising prizes. Participants who raise $250, $500, $750 and higher have their choice of brand name merchandise as our thank you for raising funds. The more you raise the better the prizes…from tote bags, to cookware, to power tools and TVs!
