On Sunday, March 14, American Women in Radio & Television Southern California (AWRT SoCal) participated in the Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure at the Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles to help raise awareness and funds to support local breast cancer services. The team raised $10,809 and was among the top five team fundraisers at the event.
The Komen Los Angeles County Affiliate raises funds to support local breast cancer services and national breast cancer research programs. A major focus is to help women who have symptoms of breast cancer but cannot afford diagnostic work or treatment - either because they do not have health insurance or because their insurance company will not pay. Of all breast cancer foundations, Komen is the only organization where 75% of the net proceeds stay in the communities where they are raised. Over $7.5 million has been distributed in the LA County Affiliate's 13 years.
