Third Party Events!

A third party event is a fundraiser hosted by members of the community and local companies that wish to donate money to the Chattanooga Affiliate.  These events can be as small as a dinner party for a few guests where you ask for donations to a large scale sporting event.  These events can use the Komen name and logo to publicize the event and the organization will also include your event listing on our website. If you are interested in hosting an event, please contact the Chattanooga Affiliate at (423)499-9155.

  Rally For The Cure(R)

Organize and host your very own event with Rally for the Cure®!

Rally for the Cure® is about people who are committed to making an impact in the fight against breast cancer. Rally is an awareness program that provides a simple platform for people to educate their friends, family and community about breast health and breast cancer. Our volunteer organized golf, tennis and social events have communicated the important message that early detection saves lives to over 1.9 million people and have generated over $60 million for Susan G. Komen for the Cure® since 1996.

Please visit www.rftcpromotions.com for more information on how to get started.

Participate in an Event

Whether you are a golfer, a bowler, a chef or a runner, you can contribute to the fight against breast cancer 365 days a year. By participating in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure® or another Komen event, you become part of a grassroots network that has changed the way the world talks about and treats breast cancer. You can make a difference as you celebrate survivorship, honor those who have lost their battle, and most importantly, raise funds and awareness for the fight against this life-threatening disease. There are many different ways to support Komen's mission.  Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure
