We announced our 2017-2018 Community Partners at our Promise Breakfast on April 21, 2017 (see pictures here). The six chosen Community Partners received funds that will benefit underserved Dallas County residents, and further the mission to save lives in Dallas County by meeting the most critical needs of the community.

Overall, we invested more than $1.1 million in local breast health services and national breast cancer research programs. We are so grateful to all of our donors, sponsors, and volunteers who made this contribution possible.

The Komen Scholars are an advisory group of 60 distinguished scholars and leaders in breast cancer research and advocacy. Each has made significant contributions to advancing the field or demonstrated significant promise of doing so in the future and all are committed to furthering Komen’s mission.

Komen Scholar, Dr. Eric Winer, was asked why Komen is so important to the breast cancer movement. He explained that Komen does an excellent job at “doing it all” and over the next 10 to 20 years Komen has the ability to make a huge impact. Dr. Winer also explains that we need to find better treatments for breast cancer patients and we must make these treatments more available for those in need. Click here to hear more from Dr. Winer.

Ariell Flood is a Komen Dallas County volunteer, a new mom to twin girls, and a breast cancer SURVIVOR.  The last two years of her life have been a whirlwind, and we are in awe of her strength and courage. Below is an excerpt from her personal story. We hope it brings you as much inspiration as it did for us. 

Through all of the needles, all of the scars (trust me
there’s a lot) and all of the weakness…the only thing I had control over was my attitude, and that gives you strength. Twenty-one months ago I beat cancer and am proof that despite the disease, we are all powerful!
