Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure
Bedmart is proud to be a local presenting partner with the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. The race is taking place on Sunday, October 11th, 2009. The activities begin at 6 am at the State Capitol District (Wesley Bolin Plaza).
Bedmart Involvement
In addition to its Local Presenting Partnership with the race, Bedmart is doing its part to raise money to this worthy cause as well. All you need to do is mention Susan G. Komen at your time of sale and we will donate 5% of all Serta, Simmons, or Tempur-pedic mattress sales through October 11th to the Foundation.
You can also pick up your race entry forms at any Phoenix area Bedmart location.
Susan G. Komen Foundation - Phoenix
The Komen for the Cure promise: to save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality of care for all and energizing science to find the cures.
The more than 100,000 survivors and activists of Komen are the face and voice of the global breast cancer movement – local activists and global citizens who mobilize millions through events like the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure® Series, the world’s largest and most successful education and fundraising event for breast cancer.
With nearly $1 billion invested to date, Komen for the Cure is the world’s largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to curing breast cancer at every stage – from the causes, to the cures, to the pain and anxiety of every moment in between.
Though their promise to end breast cancer remains the same, they marked their 25th anniversary with a renewed passion that incorporates a new name and logo, a commitment to invest another $2 billion in the next decade on breast health care, treatment, and research to discover the causes and cures of breast cancer, and on initiatives designed to create a world without breast cancer.
