RE/MAX Racing for Life®
With its "RE/MAX Racing for Life?" slogan, RE/MAX is proud to be a co-sponsor of the National Series Breast Cancer Survivor Recognition Program at Komen Race for the Cure events.
Together with its affiliate network, corporate partners and various donors, Susan G. Komen for the Cure has invested more than $630 million in research, education, screening and treatment since 1982. The foundation is best known for its Race for the Cure events, the world's largest series of 5K runs and fitness walks. Komen estimates that more than 1 million people participated in its 2006 races.
Komen's Survivor Recognition Program celebrates breast cancer survivors and honors those who have lost their battles with the disease. RE/MAX shares sponsorship with Zeta Tau Alpha Fraternity, a nonprofit volunteer organization.
RE/MAX contributes pink survivor T-shirts and caps, as well as "In celebration of" and "In memory of" back signs and program banners for every race. RE/MAX Associates who are breast cancer survivors or who otherwise have been affected by the disease are encouraged to solicit pledges for their own participation. Corporate representatives host breast cancer survivor recognition tents at the more than 100 events in the United States.
The Facts about Breast Cancer
 More than 2 million women living in the United States have been diagnosed with and treated for breast cancer.
 This year, an estimated 213,000 women and 1,720 men will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer.
 About 41,000 women and 470 men will die of breast cancer this year.
 Breast cancer is the leading cancer among American women and is second only to lung cancer in cancer deaths.
 When breast cancer is confined to the breast, the five-year survival rate is more than 95 percent.
Corporate Grace in Action
Every year thousands of RE/MAX Affiliates prove the simple principle that actions speak louder than words. At RE/MAX, Associate generosity is known as Premier Community Citizenship, or corporate grace in action |
