Why are you participating?
Everyone has "why." My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009, and now will be 10 year cancer-free! Because of the help of Susan G. Komen Florida, she was provided a space to feel supported, encouraged and informed.

Komen Florida provides the necessary access to screenings, treatment and educational services that so many in our community need. By being a BigWig, I am able to participate in something greater than myself, and create forward progress in the breast cancer community.
