It's that time of year again!
Knott's Berry Farm is teaming up with Susan G. Komen Orange County
to raise money for breast cancer awareness, services and research!
75% of the funds raised for Susan G. Komen are used
to provide local services throughout Orange County:
- Breast cancer detection and treatment education
-Information and support for breast cancer survivors and families
-Funding for free mammograms for uninsured and underserved women
25% of the funds raised for Susan G. Komen
support national research to discover the cure for breast cancer.
Two years ago I attended the kickoff to the very first Knott's for the Cure!
Little did I know that I would be diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer just a few weeks later.
Last year I attended the second annual Knott's for the Cure
as a survivor and key speaker about my battle with breast cancer.
I truly came full circle from being there as a supporter, through cancer,
and back to stand and support with my fellow breast cancer survivors!
Susan G. Komen was founded by one sister supporting another
through her fight with breast cancer,
and I was honored, humbled and blessed to be able to stand
with my fellow breast cancer sisters
to celebrate our victories and raise money to prevent
and fight breast cancer for all the women in Orange County!
Come enjoy the park and support this important cause
This special price of $40 is almost half off regular admission
and a portion of the proceeds go to such a great cause.
All of us have been or will be affected by a loved one's battle with cancer.
I am so thankful for the chance I had to fight
and the opportunity I have to be here with my family.
