Sponsors

Become a Sponsor 

Local sponsorship is critical to our being able to support local breast cancer programs and national research grants. Sponsor gifts help underwrite Race expenses and, along with entry fees and donations from Race participants, go directly toward funding breast cancer services and research. When deciding where to place your marketing dollars this year, please consider the following from the 2010 Race for the Cure Return on Investment Report:

The Race was promoted in 1,516 television advertisements, 248 live radio mentions, and more than 300,000 printed collateral pieces last year.

From June through September of 2010 (peak Race season), www.komentulsa.org received over 1 million hits.

62 percent of growth in registrations from last year were children under the age of 18, signifying the Race's transition from an athletic event to a community wide, family event.

In a 2008 Cone/Duke University Behavioral Cause Study, 79 percent of respondents stated that, assuming price and quality are equal, they would switch from one brand to another based on the brand's association with a cause.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the #2 most trusted non-profit brand in the United States (behind St. Jude, respectively), according to a 2010 Harris Interactive Survey.

Whether you are looking to support breast health in your own community, promote a new product, align your brand with Komen, build company pride and morale, or retain and increase customer loyalty, the 2011 Race Sponsorships are designed to meet the unique needs of your marketing budget.
