IMAGINE THE IMPACT

Fundraising can be quick and easy

Don't delay - step up to the Power of Ten Challenge today!

The countdown is on! This coming March 16th will mark the 14th annual Susan G. Komen Acadiana Race for the Cure®. Today you can make a huge impact on the fight to end breast cancer.  Komen Acadiana invites you to take our Power of 10 Challenge today.  It’s as easy as asking 10 people for $10.  You can use our sample email below or create your own message sharing why you support the fight against breast cancer.  Your fundraising efforts directly impact the women and men of Acadiana.

How does a 5K Race make a huge impact on the global movement to end breast cancer forever?  Through the fundraising efforts of every participant.

You don’t need to be a fundraising expert to be successful at it – you just need the desire to stand up to breast cancer and make a difference.  Thanks to people like you, in 2012 the Komen Acadiana Affiliate was able to fund $241,850 for education, screening and treatment services in Acadia, Iberia, Lafayette, St. Landry, St. Martin & Vermilion parishes.   This year we’re aiming even higher!  If every Race participant raised an average of $100 over the registration fee, the Komen Acadiana Affiliate would raise an additional $700,000!  Together, we can save lives!

Fundraising is easy with online fundraising tools! When you registered for the Race you automatically received your own fundraising website which can be personalized. Start now by logging in, and encouraging everyone you know to visit your site, see what you are doing in the fight against breast cancer and make a donation on your behalf. Up to 75 percent of net proceeds generated by the Affiliate stays right here in the local community! The remaining income goes to the national Susan G. Komen for the Cure Grants Program to fund research.

Every dollar makes an impact – thank you for everything you do!
