Breast Cancer Resources & Education

Learning about breast cancer and early detection is our best weapon against the disease.

The Susan G. Komen for the Cure has an award-winning Web site, www.komen.org, which offers the latest breast health and breast cancer information, as well as Komen for the Cure news and activities.

In addition, the Foundation’s National Toll-Free Breast Care Helpline, 1.800 I’M AWARE® (1.800.462.9273), is answered by trained and caring staff and volunteers that provide response to questions, local resource information and moral support.
