ancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. In 1982, that promise became Susan G. Komen for the Cure and launched the global breast cancer movement.

That year over 5,000 people turned out for the first Greater Evansville Race for the Cure. Since then, we haven't looked back. With over 15,500 people attending the 2010 Race for the Cure, the Greater Evansville community is doing their part in the search for a cure for breast cancer.The Greater Evansville Affiliate services 28 counties in Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky to provide breast health education, screening mammograms, diagnostic services and breast cancer treatment to men and women who are either uninsured or underinsured.
