Funds raised are critical to support local breast cancer programs and national research grants. Up to 75 percent of net funds raised stay in the Ozark Affiliates service area to support education, screening and treatment initiatives and a minimum of 25 percent is contributed to the Komen national research efforts. In the past 15 years, the Ozark Affiliate has given nearly $8 million dollars to NW Arkansas and nearly $2 million to national research.

Established in 1998, the Ozark Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure raises awareness and funds to support our PROMISE of saving lives and ending breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find the cures. The Ozark Affiliate serves 8 counties in Northwest Arkansas and the River Valley which include Benton, Boone, Carroll, Crawford, Madison, Newton, Sebastian and Washington.
