Ram Fan Pink Out!!
Susan G. Komen Foundation : The Tulsa Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® is dedicated to combating breast cancer at every front. Up to 75 percent of the Affiliate’s net income goes toward funding grants to local hospitals and community organizations that provide breast health education and breast cancer screening and treatment programs for medically underserved women. The remaining net income (a minimum of 25 percent) supports the national Komen Grants Program, which funds groundbreaking breast cancer research, meritorious awards and educational and scientific programs around the world.
The Komen Tulsa Affiliate’s services area covers all of Tulsa County. Thanks to the thousands of people who participate in the Susan G. Komen Tulsa Race for the Cure® and other Affiliate events each year, dedicated corporate partners and generous donors, Komen Tulsa is playing a vital role in fighting breast cancer in our community
