Susan G. Komen fought breast cancer with her heart, body and soul. Throughout her diagnosis, treatments, and endless days in the hospital, she spent her time thinking of ways to make life better for other women battling breast cancer instead of worrying about her own situation.

That concern for others continued even as Susan neared the end of her fight. Moved by Susan’s compassion for others and committed to making a difference, Nancy G. Brinker promised her sister that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. That promise is now the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.

Congratulations and thank you to the USPS Express Dream Team for making a difference by participating in this year's race and raising $4,500 to fight breast cancer! Special thanks to Team Captain Marguerite Goulet for coordinating postal participation and to all the employees who supported the team with donations.
