Sponsorship


Local sponsorship is critical to raising funds to support local breast cancer programs and national research grants and programs. Sponsor gifts help underwrite Race expenses, and, along with entry fees and donations from Race participants, go directly toward funding breast cancer services and research.

Sponsorship opportunities for the 2008 Race are still available. Click here for more information

Thanks to all of our 2008 sponsors and donors - your generosity will help us achieve record success in moving closer to our goal: ending breast cancer forever.
