Welcome to the Los Angeles County affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure speakers bureau. We represent a highly compassionate group of volunteers from all walks of life affected by breast cancer in some way; it is our passion to inspire, encourage, and pass on the message of hope through our own experiences where either we are survivors or family members, close friends, neighbors, or business associates of those affected by the disease.
We speak on behalf of the Los Angeles County affiliate to serve our communities with our promise: to help save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find the cures.
As an organization, we are actively involved in the fight to eradicate breast cancer, through research, education, screening, and treatment. Today, Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the world's largest and most progressive grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists - the only grassroots organization fighting to cure breast cancer at every stage, from the causes to the cures and the pain and anxiety of every moment in between. The Foundation also funds innovative programs for breast cancer education and awareness, screening for high-risk women and treatment for medically underserved women.
Our affiliate's 12 years of fundraising has resulted in nearly $7 million distributed to Los Angeles County community programs. Seventy-five percent (75%) of the local fundraising dollars remain in Los Angeles County supporting breast cancer centers, support groups and education in the metropolitan area and twenty-five percent (25%) goes to the Komen National research grant program. It is an important time to support the Affiliate. You can make a difference--one effort at a time.
We would like the opportunity to relay the message of hope, education, awareness, and treatment of breast cancer to many more communities through our Speaker's Bureau. We hope that our efforts to make a difference in the lives of women. We will be happy to work with your organization to arrange for a speaker from the Komen LA County Affiliate. We offer three speaking topics:
