Mission In Action

Every day, right here in the neighborhoods in which you live, your support of the Komen Philadelphia Affiliate translates into life-empowering, life-saving breast cancer activism. More than just relating stories of our grantees and other community outreach activities, "Mission in Action" offers you deeper insights to the various breast health needs in our community.

 

These stories represent real-life examples of how, through the Komen Philadelphia Affiliate community grants program and other initiatives, donor dollars are making a difference... saving lives and establishing the practices today that will help assure the future is one where breast cancer no longer exists in our world.
