Download Power of 10 Donation Form

What is Power of 10?

Power of 10 is a pledge program in conjunction with Komen Acadiana’s 11^th annual Race for the Cure®. Each race participant is challenged to ask 10 friends to give $10. In 2009, 215 race participants took the challenge and raised an additional $62,827.50. If the 9,000 Race participants take the challenge, the Acadiana Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure could raise an additional $900,000 to expand programs in our 6 parish service area.

Receipts in compliance with IRS requirements will be issued for individual contributions of $250 and above. For smaller contributions, a cancelled check or your emailed confirmation serves as a receipt.
