Susan G. Komen More Than Pink Walk OC, LA and IE Unite

September 15, 2021

Susan G. Komen, the world’s leading breast cancer organization’s signature MORE THAN PINK Walk fundraising events in Orange County, Los Angeles, and the Inland Empire will be held on Saturday, September 25. This year, Komen is creating a one-of-a-kind digital experience that will connect participants from across the community and the country as breast cancer survivors, “thrivers,” and supporters to walk and fundraise to end breast cancer. 

No matter where the public joins in to walk and fundraise—from a treadmill, neighborhood sidewalk, favorite beach walk, or hiking trail, Komen will host interactive activities, new challenges, and inspirational stories during the event’s “Power of ONE Week” and Opening ceremonies. 

Susan G. Komen’s work coming out of the pandemic is arguably more important than ever. Screenings, clinical trials, and research were largely halted during COVID-19 lockdowns, making the funding of key research and breast health services all the more critical to get life-saving progress back on track. 

Susan G. Komen’s leadership and supporters see this year’s event as an opportunity to walk at home, in their own neighborhoods, with the united goal of a world without breast cancer.

Registration for the Walk is free, and participants are encouraged to raise at least $250 each for Komen’s investments in breakthrough research, vital patient care support and public policy action at all levels of government. Komen continues to work to discover cures while ensuring that those facing a breast cancer diagnosis today receive the care and support they need
