the National Series Breast Cancer Survivor Recognition Program at Komen Race
for the Cure events.
Together with its affiliate network, corporate partners and various donors, Susan
G. Komen for the Cure has invested more than $630 million in research,
education, screening and treatment since 1982. The foundation is best known for
its Race for the Cure events, the world's largest series of 5K runs and fitness
walks. Komen estimates that more than 1 million people participated in its 2006
races.
Komen's Survivor Recognition Program celebrates breast cancer survivors and
honors those who have lost their battles with the disease. RE/MAX shares
sponsorship with Zeta Tau Alpha Fraternity, a nonprofit volunteer organization.
RE/MAX contributes pink survivor T-shirts and caps, as well as "In celebration of"
and "In memory of" back signs and program banners for every race. RE/MAX
Associates who are breast cancer survivors or who otherwise have been affected
by the disease are encouraged to solicit pledges for their own participation.
Corporate representatives host breast cancer survivor recognition tents at the
more than 100 events in the United States.
