Honoring Race for the Cure Survivors

One of the most meaningful moments on Race Day, the Survivor Tribute Ceremony will take place after the Race in Justin Herman Plaza. Breast cancer survivors who wish to be recognized may take part. Survivors are welcome to invite a Co-Survivor to escort them to the stage for the ceremony!  A Co-Survivor is someone you recognize as having been a source of support and inspiration during your journey, from diagnosis to treatment.

Also, breast cancer Survivors (who indicate they wish to be recognized as Survivors upon registering) should be sure to pick up their complimentary pink T-shirt and hat from the Survivor Booth on Race Day.

We would also like to invite participants to recognize those special people who have been touched by breast cancer. "In Memory Of" and "In Celebration Of" placards will be available the day of the Race at the Survivor Booth in the Expo area.

Susan's Garden

Donations made to Susan’s Garden are in support or in memory of friends and loved ones whose lives have been touched by breast cancer. For a minimum donation of $10 per name, each name will be prominently displayed at the Survivors Booth on Race Day. Susan's Garden donations are accepted online or by mail to Komen SF Race for the Cure, 150 Post, Suite 755, San Francisco, CA 94108 (please indicate "Susan's Garden", include check for $10 per name, and include In Honor/In Memory of individual's name.
