We are honored to be contacted by passionate members of our community wanting to organize an event or promotion benefiting breast cancer awareness and research. The Northwest Ohio Affiliate of Komen for the Cure partners with others to create a win-win that benefits both parties in terms of public awareness and education.We want to make this process as simple as possible.

In order for us to give each event and/or promotion request its due attention, we ask that you first read through the Guidelines available to assist you in planning your event or promotion. If after you've read the guidelines, you are interested in entering into an agreement with the Komen Northwest Ohio Affiliate, you may download a PDF to complete and return to Melissa Mahoney, Komen Northwest Ohio Affiliate, 3100 W. Central Ave., Suite 235, Toledo, OH 43606

If you decide that the size of your event does not warrant the effort to follow these guidelines, there are three other ways to support Komen:

Option 1:  You may want to consider registering for Passionately Pink for the Cure®. This program allows individuals, business and clubs/groups to fundraise for Komen. The website provides resources for your fundraising activities as well as a customizable web page.

Option 2:  You may want to consider simply making a general statement that the funds raised will go to a local breast health organization or breast cancer research and support. We would be honored to receive funds raised and would give public recognition for your donation.

Option 3:  Rally for the Cure® has expanded their well-established golf program to other events.  You can now plan a Rally for the Cure® program for sporting events like tennis, dinner events such as wine-tasting or group/club activities such as a bridge or book clubs. Click here to learn how you can become a Rally participant.
